    I’d love to watch them once and then pass them on, if that’s what you’re suggesting.

    This was a loaner set for viewing, but that kind of died out. No one has watched them once and then passed them on in a long time.

    They can be watched and then passed on or they can be watched and then saved to show new prospective casters.

    I will keep the pictured set to show others, but there are more sets!

    I would be interested in watching them and then pass them on.

    I got my Introduction to Boolit Casting 101 from various YouTube channels. I imagine many do the same.

    Still, YouTube and the internet can't always be relied on for 100% reliable information so having alternative sources is useful. And you hope that, if someone is going to the trouble to produce a video, that they will want to make sure that what is on it is correct.

    I'd consider buying a set and passing them on. Cost?

    Is that about casting projectiles from lead? I hear that’ll blow your gun up, and even if it doesn’t they are terribly in accurate.

    In all seriousness what a wonderful resource to keep someone from stumbling around in the darkness by offering repeatable instruction !!!

    I have the old hardcopy magazines from the 1990's & the DVD's.

    I've bought 3 sets of the DVD's & given them away. The 1st to My Brother-in-Law. He spent over a $1000. on RCBS Pro-Melt & 1/2 dozen molds, Lube-Sizer etc... Ten years ago & still hasn't poured a single bullet yet.
    I HATE auto-correct

    Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.

    My Experience and My Opinion, are just that, Mine.

    I am interested in purchasing a set.
    • Murder is illegal.
    • Attempting murder is illegal.
    • A felon owning a gun is illegal.
    • Shooting people indiscriminately is illegal.
    • Using firearms in a criminal manner is illegal.
    • Criminals do not go through background checks when purchasing illegal guns.
    • Explain how criminals will follow new laws.
    • Explain how new laws will make us safer.
    • Explain how restricting law-abiding citizens even more will make us safer.

    You can’t? Then your argument is invalid.

    Saw the title and was getting ready to put on my leather apron and steel toed boots and goggles. Then find somebody with a camcorder and start smelting and fluxing, pouring, sorting, sizing, gas checking, coating, weighing etc. etc. Came to my senses and decided my language (profanity) and my sometimes lax following of the safe casting rules might leave me open to legal jeopardy. Still haven't found a way to make money from my passion.

    So here is where we stand:

    I don't know how many who have posted in this thread so far want a set to watch.
    I don't know how many who have posted in this thread so far want a set to watch once and then pass on to another.
    I don't know how many who have posted in this thread so far want a set to watch once and then keep to use as a training aid to help others later.
    I also don't care if you keep them or pass them on or keep them as a training aid for later training! It doesn't matter as long as you watch them!

    I am pretty sure I have a set for every one that has expressed an interest so far.
    So far I see five interested members. They are:

    1. JimB..
    2. Rvenneman
    3. PJames32
    4. Pilgrim Sojourner
    5. aws1963

    I am not sure if Kevin C is interested or not.

    If you have posted that you are interested, and you are listed above, then PM me your name and mailing address and I will get a set in the mail to you.
    If you are interested and are not yet listed above, post that you are interested and then PM your name and mailing address. If there is too much demand for the available supply, then I will pick and choose who gets the sets that are left after the first five receive their sets. There is no cost to receive a set.
    I purchased these Casting DVD video sets a few years ago to use as loaners for new casters to watch and then forward on. The Casting DVD video lending library was busy for a while and then it turned into "out of sight, out of mind" and these videos just sat on a shelf. Now they need to go on to new homes and be used again.

    I'd love to watch them. I'm still learning the do's and dont's, and sadly Youtube is becoming more and more anti american if you know what I mean.
    Dignified? I signed up for brave and courageous, not dignified!

    The above link to the Lending Library has a dead link to the new rules because the lending library is forever closed. This thread with the bad link:

    http://castboolits.gunloads.com/show...K-to-new-Rules

    So now you know where these DVD videos came from.
