I just clicked on "HOME" and it opened right up.

Yeah, but . . . the classifieds are still out of bounds for non members . . . they said I already had two friends, and a new friend request!

I didn't bother to sign up . . . [smilie=1:

Yeah, the classifieds are closed to non-members. That ad is some junk that is put up there by google. One of the downfalls of the software and servers I use. The ads are not seen by members. Membership is free, BTW.

I moved the post to the casting area so Yall can see it.

That thing way past cool! Talk about production. That would take a friggin bucket of lead for every pour.....Preheating might be a slight challenge too...... Who cares?!? It would be worth every hiccup just to see it work.

[Triggerhappy]

That's pretty cool. Wonder what bullet he made it for.

[sqlbullet]

It says it it a 158 grain SWC. I would guess for 38/357. About 2.25 lbs per pour. 1000 bullets in 10 casts. Nice.

[Blammer]

wonder how many cast's it takes to preheat the mould so you don't get wrinkles?

[JeffinNZ]

I don't care who you are. That's impressive on any scale if not for the casting just for the engineering skills it took.

[Johnch]

Not going to sign up , just to see the price

By chance
What is the asking price

Interesting , but out of my leauge

It isn't for sale.

[44fanatic]

I wonder how many tons the sprue weighs.

Theres allot of space on the "rack", I wonder if the mold sat over some sort of burner to get it up to temp.

[mooman76]

It opened fine for me. How'd you like to have to lament that one?

[geargnasher]

Holy COW. That would take Felix's M.O.A.S. just to keep up the lead production! Two hours to preheat the mould and melt a half-ton or so of lead, three hours to cast it all up, that would yield about 54,000 boolits!

That is just way too cool. I gotta have one, or two. LETS MOVE THIS TO GROUP BUY DISCUSSION!!!!

[geargnasher]

Group buy as in about forty of us pitch in and buy the one in the pic, or group buy as in cause poor Al Nelson to have a stroke writing the CNC program? ........I wonder if one of those block and sprue sets would fit in a LFRB......? Nahhhhh. But it's nice to fantasize about having one of those set up on the coffee table when one's friends visit, no?

Pretty neat, but I gotta admit that is probably overkill for me! Looks like some good
thought went into it.

i bet it is (was) a better idea than how it really turned out or worked. a double row aluminum lee type mold would be great. middle fixed to the hinge, left and right open with handles, yea that's the ticket! lol.

[beladran]

as far as i know that is a virgin mold..(never been cast with)
the builder sadly went out of business back in the 80's but he made some crazy stuff! I have used some 8 cavity 45acp molds he made and i have to say i was impressed.
He made a bottom pour 60-80lb gas powered pot that you could have 1 to 4 pour spouts on it to instantly fill gang molds

[bowfin]

Does that take Lee six cavity handles?

[Thinktwicez71]

here are the pictures to make it easier

[hammerhead357]

Where was the maker located? I think I may have visited with him by phone a few times. He had some wild ideas if this is the same person....Wes

[Southern Son]

that is a talented feller that made that. With way too much time on his hands.
