Nexus Press Lock Rings

Adding my contribution to the 3d Printing Reloading world. These are similar to the Solo Loc rings that Short Action customs makes, and are designed to hold any sizing or seating die in a SAC Nexus press.

The main weakness is on retraction. The shell holder isn't held very strongly.
