Thanks for the orders!

Need to point a couple of things out.

First orders ship Monday/Tuesday so if you want to add the Floating shelf or Lid to an order let me know before then. Takes a while to get production going on new products.

Floating shelf wasn't on the site at first. These are easy to copy and could be used to make custom guides for your molds.

If you didn't order the lid you may be underestimating its value for heating your molds up and reducing melt times. See pic below taken on the Lee lid.

Placing my order, could not resist!

Mine arrived yesterday and was mounted today. Great work and fits like it belonged there. Recommend anyone casting with the RCBS look into getting one.

Package arrived today! Well made and functional. I am pleased!

Quality products at great price
working on how to use a K probe from top--enjoy the challenge of how to deal with it.

I just received mine today. It looks even better in person than it does in the photos. I won't be able to put mine together until later tonight, but I think it's going to be great.

DeWayne,

Would you consider offering a thermocouple support bracket that easily attaches to the Pro-Melt and notching your lid for same?

Thanks and regards,

Tony

I actually did a small articulating arm a few years ago for mounting thermometers and thermocouples. I also did the same with a piece of 12ga solid copper wire. Copper wire works just as good. Bends easy and is cheap. On the Lee pot you have several bolts to attach to. On the RCBS you can just use the stock round bar that sticks above the top and slip the spiraled copper wire over the round bar. Put the thermocouple / thermometer in that opening in the front. Just put a spiral on each end of a piece of copper wire. Bend it in such a way that it clips into that opening.

You can also do something like harley6699 just posted on the Lee Upgrade thread.

I'll give that some thought.

The shelf system is an outstanding design and very nicely machined !
Anyone who uses a Pro-Melt should give them a try. Make sure you order the floating shelf plate extension.

The shelf takes the entire weight of the mold off of your wrist !








For some reason the shelf unit simply will not fit my older Pro-Melt !

GLL - You have no idea how much I appreciate you posting some images and comments. Sold about 40 the first month and this is the first user images posted here.

Here's a simple PDF on how to post images on this forum.

thanks, DeWayne

GLL,

What kind of handles are those in your photos? KAL?

Thanks,

Tony

[GLL]

Tony:

The handles are indeed KAL size 6X! The best !

Rick made me extra custom length wood though.

Thanks GLL. Now that I've seen the shelf with a mold on it, I have to buy one. Good grief.

Just placed my order for a shelf and lid kit. Didn't think I needed it as I was getting along OK with the bar rest. Then I saw GLL's post with pic's.
