Adding to the homemade stuff.
It was cut for large rifle and pistol brass.
Fits well onto the AR reloading stand and hold 85 rounds
It worked out so well my next one will be built specifically for 223 brass.

That's a nice homemade reloading shell holder. Looks like its made out of red oak, possibly?

It's Brazilian cherry, flooring leftover. I am one to never let anything go to waste if I can help it.

Cherry, that explains the reddish color. I like using leftovers whenever possible too.

Bullseye, the red, natural color of the wood is very much enhanced by the rub-on poly I sealed the cherry with. I love rub-on poly, it'll dry quickly, seals the wood well, plus it's inexpensive and easy to use.

I've used it and feel the same way. It's hard to apply badly with the rub-on finish.
