    Saeco Lubrisizer, Orange...?

    Hey guys,

    Looking at and reading some of the posts about older lubrisizers got me to thinking. I was "loaned" an old orange Saeco lubrisier with a set of molds. He told me if he ever wanted them back he knew where they were. That man is dead. So is his son. None of his grandkids want any of the stuff I got from him.

    The one time I tried to use it, felt like it was cutting the lead off. I'm thinking about getting it back out and trying to get it going again. Maybe changing the H&I dies for a newer set?

    Actually a grandson is going to do the work. He just doesn't know it yet.

    It's been sitting on a shelf for 30 years. I might as well get some use from it.

    Thanks for your time,
    Victor

    If it's a Saeco, H&I dies won't fit/work. Saeco are different altogether. But.....being orange, do you think you mis-remember the make? It may be a Lyman and if so, H&I dies will work fine. Either way, I would suggest you boil the old lube out of it, clean it up and start afresh. Good luck.

    I guess... Getting it out and looking at it again would probably help my memory a lot. Are Saeco dies & accessories even still available? Thanks for the help.
