I dip lube my bullets.
Has anyone tried one of those paraffin spa wax melting things to melt the lube????

...and I don't remember who posted it so I could give him credit, but I use an old electric thrift shop percolator coffee pot with all the coffee "plumbing" removed to heat and store my home made boolit lube. Works great, and won't overheat the wax, plus I can carefully pour the melted wax into the pan without upsetting the boolits.

Mark :coffee:

Many Thanks,

Failing that, there's always the $10.00 yard sale crock pot. I think I like the coffee pot idea better.

The handle, lid and pouring spout on the small coffee pot are just " made to order " for filling the lube reservoir on a Lyman 45.

I used one of those mini crock pots. Worked good and the lid sealed the wax. Just a little wax around the lid rim which seems to get there anyway.
