Watched a video on the tumble method to coat boolits with Alox using cool whip containers. Not having any, was at the grocery store yesterday and bought a couple of tubs of cool whip. Not wanting to waste it, bought a couple of pumpkin pies...
At least my reloading/casting room is on the 2nd floor of my house and the computer is on the first, so I have to run up and down the stairs to double-check info on here...

Need to learn to invite your shooting bud's over to share the pie and cool whip.

Yep, me too...my shop is on the bottom floor and house on the upper level, built into the side of a sloping ridge. Have to go up n down to get on forum.
Often times I've thought...'I wished I had a nickel for every step traversed over the years!'
Especially for the first year I spent remodeling, building cabinets etc. down in the shop, tools and parts, carrying them back and forth every day that first year. I should be thin as a rail but...ain't!

I wish I could say I was getting fatter because of a hobby. Any hobby.
Fact of the matter is, I married Miss Fry-it-in-butter. Made her Mrs Bookworm. She is a fabulous cook.
I put on 15 pounds within 2 months of being married, and it ain't stopped.
There is always Cool-Whip containers around. Some full, most aren't.
And yes, I'm blaming Mrs Bookworm. For my sake, don't tell her. I don't want her to quit cooking.

Seem like a creative way to solve the problem

I hope I never have another two-story dwelling, stairs at work are bad enough. Seems any little chore around the house involves a trip up and down stairs. I use a Folgers coffee container for tumble lubing, they even have a built-in handle!

If all THIS hobby does is make you fatter, you'll be way better off than most of us!

I just posted a new thread about how I use those for my different media blends... But you're right; they would be awesome for the tumble lubing!
