I’m brand new to casting and picked up the above mould a few weeks ago. I’ve cast maybe only about ~400 boolits with it.
I’ve broken it in with heat cycles and lube it with 2 cycle oil every time.
Today the Sprue plate started to separate from the mould. No matter how I adjusted the Sprue plate screw, there was a gap causing flashing at the base of my boolits. I’m fairly certain that I’m smacking the plate square on with my wooden stick. The bottom of the plate and the top of the mould are pretty clean.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this?
