    Abstract: A process for loading a primer into an ammunition cartridge while concurrently forming a diffuser disk includes stamping a sheet to pre-form a diffuser disk therein. The primer, pre-formed diffuser disk and primer pocket of the cartridge are aligned with one another and thereafter, the primer is pressed through the pre-formed diffuser disk into the primer pocket. As the primer is pressed into the pre-formed diffuser disk, the primer severs one or more attachment points to release the pre-formed disk from the sheet and form the diffuser disk while the primer is loaded.

    Abstract: The tree topper stabilizer secures various types and sizes of ornaments to a tree by providing a stable, adjustable platform. It comprises a threaded mounting adapter, an attachment adapter, one or more rod mounts, at least two threaded tabs with gripper leg connectors, and a collar. The gripper legs interlock with the connectors, and the collar tightens around the threaded tabs, causing them to flex inward, securing the gripper legs against the branches. The stabilizer supports ornaments using rods, hooks, or cone attachments, including hollow ornaments that are secured by flexible cone tabs that adjust to various sizes. The attachment adapter is adjustable, enabling different ornament orientations. The stabilizer may include a base, gripping prongs on the collar for improved tightening, and spikes on the gripper legs for added stability.
