Heater element

[beppe]

hello everyone!! I bought a used lyman 4500, I also bought used (still not arrived) a heating element, you tell me if it is okay or is it better to buy a heater universal ?
in each case, I think to use a regulator of electricity.
thanks in advance for your help ciaoooooooo

I use a heater on mine, even though I use soft lubes most of the time now. My casting stuff is outside in my unheated barn and there are a lot of times of the year even soft lubes won't work without the heater.

Keep practcing with the 4500, it can take a while and a few bullets to get a feel for just how much pressure to put on the lube and get into a rhythm, but it will happen.
