Yes, the molds that Miha creates are awesome. My only concern with this is cost and time. He is in such demand for his quality product that it will be a long while before we see these. What about some of the other mold manufacturers. I know NOE makes a nice 4 cavity mold. Not sure about MP.... just my $0.02. Either way, I do look forward to these once they are created.
I will take 2 with cast boolits logo
I'm sorry gentlemen but I'm going to withdraw my name from the list on the ingot molds , I originally wanted 2 then went to 4 but I am going to get some made by my local welder and rush him a little . Toallmy
The handle connection from the NOE mold might be worth a look for an idea of how those should be shaped.
http://noebulletmolds.com/NV/index.php?cPath=95 I would say that price point might vary a bit between US NOE prices and European prices from Miha but this may provide some guidance on price point. Fairly close on bullet mold prices so I don't expect their prices for molds would be all that different from each other.
Key feature of this mold buy for me is the sized to fit the SFRB and maybe the MFRB so one can fully load the box to get the most product shipped for the least shipping cost. Tightly packed product is least likely to bust out the box too. One can pay a welder to do something roughly the same size but probably not as precisely sized for filling shipping box. Welder will possibly cost more depending on costs in your area. Would expect it to be fast turn around from local welder.
I am interested in both molds I want 1 of each
I am interested in the CB logo
Bump.
Bump, Bump,Bump, anything going on with progress?
Hi guys, this one is proving tough to get at a reasonable cost.... the current cost would be $60+ per mold which doesnt sound any good to me.
However.... i started reaching out to some Chinese casting companies through Alibaba last week to get quotes going. Ive not gotten any prices yet but im hopeful i will soon.
Worst case, the place im working has a dozen Haas CNC mills, and i could start getting the cut from solid aluminum blocks. I dont know if everyone would want this type, so trying to get the cast iron type into production....

Thanks for the update! I do appreciate the effort you've put into this, and I'm still interested, though of course the final price may affect how many I get.
I've got some good news coming on the ingot mold, stay tuned!!!
I will have final cost numbers coming within the next week.
Extremely cool. I've got a lot of alloy to cast!

I’m also interested depending on cost.
I’d want the Cast Boolits mold...
If they are gonna come out of China,
I do not want one.
I would be interested in a couple.
