I picked up a bunch of moulds on the weekend that need cleaning up and test casting to ensure they are in decent shape. They were run in a magma machine, so have the mounting hardware to suit. Has anyone seen handles that will mount to these moulds? I'm sure i can make a set, but i'd like to see how they are made to get an idea of what they should look like to cobble something together. Then don't need to cast thousands, just a few test casts to see what they drop.

It will take me quite a while to clean then test cast these, not all have markings to know what they are, so casting then measuring them will help me identify them easier.

Time to order some brass brushes to give them a good clean up.

Per Magma, RCBS handles.

The problem with those handles is that the magma moulds don't have a hole there for a pin to mount the handles. See if this image works

I may just need to dig out some steel and my welder and see what comes from it.
