Priming a coupla hundred Nosler 6.5 Creed cases was hard on my hand using my RCBS bench primer (https://amzn.to/36H0Pq3). Problem solved with three layers.

I bought a roll of 1/2"-wide hockey tape ~3 weeks ago. And since then half the things in the house have been taped up. I retaped the handle of my Clinch Pick, taped the hand strap on my sap, ran a little bit around the body of my favorite flashlight, some around the grip of my LCP, taped up the handle of a hammer that the rubber grip had come loose on, etc.

While the Foster Bros and D3 Protection make nice saps. I find myself opting to carry a 2-ply Boston Leather - https://www.copsplus.com/boston-leather-midget-sap-6-75-long - Pretty much all the time. It's the right balance of thickness and weight, without being too big. My Foster Midget sap is quite a bit bigger and heavier and just gets left at home.

The 2-ply Boston Midget is like the J-Frame of saps. There are bigger, better, nicer, tools...but you're gonna carry this one instead...

My Dad’s old Bucheimer. It’s 40+ years old. Still hurts like a sonovabitch.
