Mine was here when I finally got home to Colorado. Wonderful machining. I hope to cast with it before June arrives.
Had a few hours to dump some lead into mine today...should get to take them for a spin next week!
Mine arrived
pretty fast service from the postal outlet. 2 Weeks enroute!
Thanks SciFiJim and Swede and the boys for making this happen!
Yahoo.... Got mine... and what a beauty it is...
As has been said many times before; Al & the NOE guys do a fine job of making these moulds... I can see these being as revered as H&G's in the years to come.... It'll almost a shame to pour lead all over it (almost)...
Just need the temperature’s to cool off a little now - having a heat wave in the UK right now... just not used to it....
Might need to go to a personal trainer as well to build my strength up 'cause sure do notice a difference in weight with this brass one after having had a couple of Lee 6 cavs...
Thanks SciFiJim & Al - I am well please and glad I joined this GB.....
May we achieve our aims....
I'm pulling this message because I got the issue sorted out. User error.

Make sure both HP pins are settling down on the brackets the same.
If one pins is taller than the other it could make a difference.
I like to give the hinge pin a little tap, tap, tap as I close the blocks.

The expectation of evil is more bitter than the suffering -OR-
More people die from worrying about getting ate by a bear then get ate by a bear.
I think you're right. I ran a bunch more today and they were all pretty consistent. Sorry for the trouble!
