I have purchased Lyman equipment for 60 years or so. I just got one of their Mag 25 bottom pour pots and they are slipping in quality. The limit screw is bent and will not stop the shut off rod. The plate it is attached to is not level either. The mold heater block is not level so your molds will not stand up on it. It has tripped my GFI circuit twice now. Took me an hour to figure that out cause it has never tripped on me before and I run a lot of different things on it.
Nice looking unit - wish they had told me where to put the bitter end of the little spring, guess it goes under the handle where it is pinned at the pivot stud.
Nothing I can't fix - but darn it I should not have too.
