The Wagner on the top right is a great pan to cook with after seasoning or could sell for a good price. The breakfast/egg pan in the top middle is also a good pan to sell after it has been cleaned...

Not sure about any lead left but as a cast iron collector you can ruin a piece of CI with that method. While it does work to clean you can change the molecular structure of it to the point it will be...

Mytmousemalibu beat me to it. Look at the back of it and see if there are any markings. Might be made by Wagner or Griswold. You should be able to sell it and make your money back and then some. If...

Thanks, I am willing to try anything.

Its still pissing me off. The heater is a Lyman base with no adjustment. Maybe I am not leaving it on enough. How long should I leave it before I start? Could the black "Alox" lube be not as...
Forum: The Star Equipment Corner
Thanks Fred. The issue is there is about a 1/16 or smaller gap of no lube. I followed the video instructions on how to plug holes and measure and things got better. Didn't know is the lube is not...

I have a heated base plate and am using some black ALOX (that is what is was marked) lube. I am having issues with getting complete coverage in the lube ring. I cleaned the sizer die but still have...
