No, I am not making this up............

I use an old propane turkey deep frier (i.e. single burner). Went to Good Will and secured a cast iron pot for 12.00. Same tools for smenting & casting!

Some "home made" fun.....

Picture 1 – The 3 “tumblers” (coffee cans) in the sound reduction box (kitchen cabinet w/ceiling tiles and foam).

Picture 2 – The bearing for the spinning rods (garage...

Post #19 with pictures.......

I am new to casting as well but learning from a veteran. If the bullet is solid and sound, I'll load and fire it!

However, my friend has examined some of my castings and has stated that the lead...

Thanks Trubo1889!

As I am learning it would make since to me that a good initial seal is a tad more important than the fit in the barrel (as the bullet cross the area from case (no-rotation) to...

I have purchased two firearms off of their "used" page.
Both were in great condition and shipping was no problem to my FFL.

Working with pistol ammo (9mm, 38/357 & 45 ACP), Bullseye is my choice.
However, I found a SCRAMMING deal on AA #7.
Testing on the stated calibers is now underway.

I have a used Puma 92 and have had no problems.

My odd question, are you using commercial or reloaded ammo?
The size difference of the 38/357 is obvious, but if reloading is the 357 on the...

Another place for untreated walnut media is Harbor Fright, in the abrasive / blasting section.

I work on the less expensive (ok cheap) side of life.
At Good Will, I picked up:

- A plastic toy box with lid.
- A deep fryer basket.

1) I place the basket in the box
2) Brass w/media in the...

If you keep your eyes open, there are sales to be found. On Craig's list I picked up a Star Luber Sizer w/2 dies AND a RCBS Lube-A-Matic w/24 dies (yes 24!).

You can over-temp as well. If the boolits are grey or cloudy, the lead (and or mold) are now to hot.

I moved up from a 2 barrel Harbor Freight to "Bertha".
It is 3 coffee cans, in an old kitchen cabinet.
Per the spouse, it was "f _ _ _ _ _ _ loud".

I installed ceiling tiles internal and...

I use 3 parts Walnut, 1 part Lyman Red.

The 1st tumble is w/o brass and a lot of cut-up dryer sheet pieces (pull-off the dust).

When I tumble, it is 1.5 cups in a coffee can (home-made...

Secured my 61 off of Craig's List.
No idea its age, but it is older than me!

Works Great!

Many years ago, my wife and I bought the outdoor single Propane burner to deep fry chickens or turkeys. If you have one (or can secure one for cheap (Craig's List, yard sale, etc.)), it works great!

I secured my Lyman Model 61 off of Craig's List for $40. It is old and to date I have processed over 400 lbs through the 10 lbs pot.

I have no reason to complain!!!

Good Will, the BEST parts store around!

I bought a table top fry pan w/adjustable heater.
Cut off the sides, mounted it and the Star to an oak board, HEAT FOR 5.00!

Oh, by mounting it to the...

In the S-Can man!
