My Lee #10 pot that I've had since 1988 that I bought USED for $25 bucks crapped out today.......Took it apart to see what was wrong and the coil inside were broken.......Oh well can't fix that!...Got online and went to "Midway" and order a Lee Pro 4 20 Lb Furnace $77 shipped to my door....DONE
The H&G68 6 cavity mold that I have goes through lead BIG TIME!......Can't wait to cast with this set-up!http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/PDshooter/casting/Casting.jpg

..............I think you'll be happy with the 20 pounder. I am with mine and I've had it about 14 years.

While you were at midway, you could have gotten a replacement element for ~ $10.
It's a cinch to replace. Then you would have 2 pots or be selling the old one on ebay for about $50.

Too bad, someone just PIF'd a new element that needed a good home.

PDshooter, I sent you a PM on the old one's fate...
