I went to the Overland Park KS gun show today and thought I would stop by Cabelas on the way home just to look. And there I spotted it a new Lyman spout type lead dipper with threads on both sides and a little plug to insert in the unused hole. So you know the rest it went home with me.

Cool, most people who design things seem to think we lefties don't exist.

And I remember teaching my right handed Son to cast.......everything is backwards for us lefties.

I modified my Lyman dipper some 38 years ago by cutting off the handle and brazing it on the other side. Luckily, I also have a non modified dipper for use by my Son. He likes the bottom draw pots better anyway.

Too late for me, after more than 45 years switching hands every cast, I wouldn't know how to run a left handed ladle. I remember when my mother bought me a pair of left handed scissors when I was over thirty years old, by then I had learned ot live with righty scissors.

I was born in Overland Park, raised in Prairie Village. Lived in Kansas until the age of 37 when I took a job in MO and married a wonderful woman from NE. Miss home though. Where was the gun show?

Yea, the scissors I had the same experience as you. But the dipper wont be that way.
The show was at the international trade center 115th and Metcalf. I would have expected a bigger show for the KC KS area. The only thing I bought there was a bag of new 38-55 brass.

We are living in a wrong handed world. For that reason alone I bought one of those left handed charter arms revolvers. Great fun, watching an unsuspecting right handed shooter try to figure out how to open the cylinder.
