Curious if the 2 mold handles interchange with the 6 cav?
Not that I'm cheap but I am. If the 2 molds for the 6 cav then it's a good deal.
Thanks.

Nope. Too short.

Still a good deal. All Lee casting gear is unbeatable bang for the buck.

However the Lee 6 cavity handles will often fit other companies 1, 2, 3 & 4 cavity molds I use a couple of pairs of Lee 6 cavity handles for NOE and Lyman molds. So you can get a lot of use from the Lee 6 cavity handles.

I find it well worth my time to slip the wood handles off and put some JB Weld in the hole then put the handle back on. There is a tendency for the wood to slip off which can lead to dropping a mold. JB Weld can take the heat and solidly glues the wood handle to the metal. Nothing messes with a casting session like have the mold trying to drop off the handle.
