Goy my RD Lee 6 cavity mold yesterday, cleaned it, Lee directions say lube it but it doesn't show where? I wan't to use Bull plate lube. Pics are worth a thousand words.

Thanks Michael for getting theese shipped quickly.

Hope you still have the mould in pieces , lube the sprue plate pivot bolt, washer and the hole in the sprue plate and reassemble , next is to do the same with the sprue cam bolt , then do the alignment pins and bushings .

Get the mould up to temp and cast a few boolits till you are getting good fill out on the bases then do the mating surfaces of the mould and sprue plate wiping the excess off as per Bullshop's instructions .

Should be good to go then .

PS oops , don't forget to do the handle pivot bolts also .
