    Yard sale find....

    Out yard sale(ing) yesterday and picked-up an RCBS LAMII, with a Midway Heater, 4 Lyman .30 cal molds, top punches, a bunch of Lee molds 8 (38/.357, .45LC and .459 rifle, as well as minie molds), a Lyman thermometer, ladle, some other odds and ends.
    Package deal was cheaper than filling the truck with gas.

    Was wondering if anyone knows which way to turn the screw on the heater? It works, and gets hot quick, just have never seen one before.

    Turn counterclockwise to cool it down, IIRC.

    Cool Yard Sale Finds -

    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!).

    All I ever found at yard sales was stuff someone was gonna' throw away and decided to try and sell. If nobody buys it then they throw it away.

    Our Daughter in Washington State (NOT Washington RAThole) called me one weekend out of the blue.
    They were out yard sale-ing and came across a bunch of reloading stuff.
    "Dad, do you need anymore reloading stuff? There's like 5 presses here and a bunch of other stuff."

    I would have LOVED to have been able to poke through that pile.

    Sounds like a great score, Pete. Have fun exploring the new toys.
