Nice idea and design
For $ 9.99 + shiping I think I will make my own .
But the PVC tubing and 5/16 OD copper I am now using works .

It looks good to me!
But I already made mine. I made mine about about 1 foot long. I get 3 sticks from each of my molds!
But after all that work,I make the lube and pour it in to canning jars. Then I just melt the lube in the microwave and pour it in the sizer, on the reloading bench, my chair,and the floor! It makes is super easy......Buck

So....does anyone havea recipe for something like Thompsons Blue Angle or Rooster Red Zambini ?

Thats what I use. If I can get a recipe, I'd make it myself.

My 50-50 is too sticky to just push out. I have to freeze it first. Once it's out, it behaves like normal though.

Hotguns, I'm makeing a hard high speed lube that works better for me than Rooster Red in my 06. If you'd like to try some, email me your address.

I made one about like Gussy's but a little wider spacing. Used 1" conduit with the insides polished and 1/4" or 5/16's dowel rod for the center. Use just the conduit peices for solid tubes for the Star machine. I make a soft lube, but use it both for black powder and smokeless at this point, with the emphasis on BP. Use beeswax, Neatsfoot Oil, Murphy's Oil Soap and Olive Oil in the mix and got it from a Paul Mathews Book. Don't use it a lot for smokeless yet but it's doing fine in my Rimmed 30 Carbine/32-20 Improved Blackhawk loads with a lot of charge in them. Plan to try some more mixes as I go along.
