Hey guys,
I broke my cast iron lead-dipping ladel. I went to E-bone but no luck. Went to the local ACE Hardware - no luck (they even went through three catalogs the size of a NYC phone book to see if they could order one for me). So here's the question; where can I get another cast iron ladel? If anyone knows where to find them it'll be someone here.
TIA,
Netherwolf

netherwolf,

Go here, good ladles. I use the one pound size for all my casting.

The Rowells, Lyman and RCBS are all fine ladles, can't recommend the Lee for dipping though.

Mike, I have a cast iron one that the handle broke on. Can you do anything with it?

Hey guys,
Thanks for the links & the repair offer. I have one more local possibility to check into. If that falls through I'll be back here.

I just did a search there are hundreds of them out there for as little as 7.00 for a 1 1/2 pounder.

Hey Madman,
The cheapest one I found on line was $15.00 + S&H. I found a local who brazed mine back together for $5.00 (but thanks for the links on the $7.00, 1.5 pounders just the same).
