Darn....I just bought a new casting ladle , my old one was 50 years old and the handle was wearing out !
Keep us posted....No law says you can't have two ladles.

You know I could use a ladle for smelting ... one a little bigger than a casting ladle , with a longer handle. That would help pouring those ingots .

Yes please do post pics as to size of ladle you intend on making, i have one from my grand father and it has a metal handle which gets hot after a while, so now using kitchen type kind of light tho. Also with metal handle. Something that will hold bout 4-5# wood handle sturdy 18” length.

If you do decide to list them here, do it only in the Swappin' & Sellin' section of the forum, as sales and offers to buy aren't allowed anywhere else.

Hope this helps.

When you list them in the swapping & selling section , tell us they are over there....I don't go over there as a rule , and would appreciate a "go see them "...PM if you like , I am interested and believe in supporting our fellow members.
