Maybe do it like a cooking show, where you have stuffed prepped for each stage, and go to each stage for the visual demo during the outline?I like that idea.
I also though of using more of an outline next year to keep us on topic. Also to give time for the presenters that have most experience in a topic without us walking over each other. We tend to interject a lot. It was the coffee I swear.
Great idea! I could go through it and then have the hands on after. That would be greatMaybe do it like a cooking show, where you have stuffed prepped for each stage, and go to each stage for the visual demo during the outline?
Picked one up yesterday. The one they had setup as a display model was not very stable. So after looking it over I could see they had put it together wrong. Anyway, bought one, brought it home and assembled it. Nice unit. I wouldn't put a 1/2 Propane tank pot on it but for anything less it would be a nice unit.Nice find. Looks to be sturdy too.
That’s great for ladle casting big bullets. You have plenty of alloy and plenty of heat. Nice score!Picked one up yesterday. The one they had setup as a display model was not very stable.

yeah you have to be careful, alot of these are not rated for as much weight we toss on them and especially banging around. They van be easily modified especially if you got scraps and a welder.Picked one up yesterday. The one they had setup as a display model was not very stable.

MP Moulds is having a 20% off sale right now. Super good deal for one of the best custom molds out there.Anyone see any decent deals on casting gear yet ?
I really dont have the room for the larger Lyman and RCBS pots but they are PID controlled and after casting with the Lyman 25 with digital control I had much better results from start to finish. Un like the lee that gets hotter as the lead goes down....not a huge deal as I see no real difference down range between shine and frosted bullets.
maybe a good price IDK

Pretty much going to use this with a 12 quart dutch oven to melt wheel weights and do some smelting. Then use my Lyman to cast.yeah you have to be careful, alot of these are not rated for as much weight we toss on them and especially banging around.

Mines going on 10 yrs old and sees the weather everyday. Even the cheap regulator/stainless hose has lasted far longer than I thought it would.
Someday I will do a much better area where I can have a bench and a 30 to 100 lb tank ? the 20lbs loose some mmpphh on the flame as they get low. This requires me finding a 30 or 100 tank for free partially full of course.
I use a $20 oven from Walmart unless I pail less for it. I dont remember, but it was t over $20.What is everyone using for an oven to do Hi-Tek coating? I've seen other posts that Convection is better than just a Toaster oven. I'd like something with two shelves I think.
Nice score!Didn’t find any muffin pans but found this mold for ingots, $6 why not.
Nice,I'll be looking g for thoseDidn’t find any muffin pans but found this mold for ingots, $6 why not.
