I just got two brand spankin new lee carbide sizer dies for my birthday. Turns out the boxes are childproof. I know this because it takes me 30 minutes to get them open, and a child of 6 could probably get them open in 30 seconds........ sheesh....

GOB,

I hear what you are saying about those round Lee die boxes. I prefer the RCBS die boxes with the little snap gizmo. After the gizmo breaks off, I just put a big rubber band around the die box and stack it on end in chronological order with all the other die boxes in my wooden box.

These weren't round Adam, they were flat boxes, but with a tab on each side that are a complete bear to get open. The round ones.... sheesh don't gimme started. The RCBS boxes I agree are better, so are the old lyman boxes.

I hear ya. Tried putting a set of wipers on my wife's car last night. Man I thought I was going to have to call my 6 year old to do it. I hope they stay on.

Then the medicine bottles, don't get me started.

The round Lee die 'boxes' go in the trash, at my house.
Try storing 30 sets of dies in those round boxes. . . it's an idiotic design.
