Hey guys I just did an installation video of the NOE mould guide on my RCBS pro melt. Figured I would post it here for anyone who is interested. Sure makes things a ton easier than the bar it cam with. Particularly useful if you use big gang moulds or brass.

Set up right, the raised rail definitely makes it much easier to consistently hit every cavity.
One issue I have is on filling the cavities from furthest away to closest (pushing the blocks away as they fill rather than pulling): spillage over the end of the block may freeze with a drip hanging off the end. That’ll abruptly jam the mold against the cut out in the guide. Definitely throws off my casting rhythm. I need to go for a smaller sprue puddle, or maybe tilt the mold up.
Thanks for posting, do these come back in stock regularly? They show oos right now.
I bought one a few weeks ago. I think they are still in stock.
They restocked yesterday, I grabbed one, thank you.Quote:

Great video.
I've been watching some of your videos on Hi-Tek coating......then join here today and see this thread. :goodpost:
I have one of those NOE guides on the way....the Lee adaptor rod was out of stock, though. Looks like a very handy part.
Maybe the guide can be used straddling the sections of an ingot mold for the short term....until the adaptor is available or until I possibly figure out another mounting solution.
Okay....the guide rod arrived a couple weeks ago.,..and the Lee adaptor came back "in stock" and just arrived in my hands.
My next days off work may very well find me casting.
Still waiting on my bullet sizers that are currently in limbo at my local post office.
