NYE CREASER (FLICKR)

Description:

The gauge post remains centered in the opening between the jaws, which allows the cartridge to be positioned without touching either jaw prior to the "creasing" operation. This tool makes a crease to position the "wad" between powder and shot, and rolls the end of a cardboard shotgun shell over a cardboard end cap.

A known example is marked only with the patent date.
