Making the Lee Carbide Factory Crimp Die better: The FortuneCookie45LC hack

Not long ago our good friend FortuneCookie45LC came up with a unique and very useful hack for the Lee Carbide Factory Crimp Die. He found that we can adapt the Lee Bullet Seater Micrometer Screw to the FCD, and use to make smooth, recordable and repeatable crimp settings for our rounds.
Following some discussion between us, I came up with a couple of additional 'hacks to the hack' that make the system useful to me, and wanted to share our collective ideas with my audience.
