I've got an XL650 and an SDB (which is older by far than the 650). I tried to use the tool head stand with the SDB tool head and it won't sit on the post without falling over. I had tried using the collar and setscrew, but it still doesn't stay upright.
Has Dillon Precision considered making a tool head stand for the SDB? If so, I haven't seen it advertised, or if not, could they produce them, or maybe machine a post that would fit the existing tool head stand and installing it or making it a user option to interchange?

We have never offered a toolhead stand for the Square Deal machine, and have no plans to at this time.

I am a little bit taken aback by that.
Dillon offers a quick-change for the Square Deal, just like for the "big boys" in the line. If I want to use the quick-change on my XL650, I have a toolhead stand to hold them while I'm not using them. What do I do with the quick-change for the SDB when I'm reloading a different caliber? I don't want to just lean it against something on the bench or stuff it into a drawer where it might get knocked out of adjustment, not to mention any powder residue being left in the drawer.
Granted, the SDB isn't the top of the line, but if you're going to offer the quick-change, wouldn't it be reasonable to offer a toolhead stand for it?
Just a recommendation.
