    Regardless, super nice of Dillon take care of it.
    The heavy metal tube that bolts at the frame is about 14 or so inches long. I hit the top of that tube falling forward which was sideways on the press and there was nothing to stop it from snapping off. I do agree though; the cast aluminium is pretty weak there. However, what happened should have never happened...it was totally my fault.
