Creeker,
That is one Hellova nice setup. I think I am going to get a Master caster, and have all of my RCBS/Lyman doubles converted to fit. If it can work for me the way you are using it for all of my larger moulds, it will be worth the money. I just picked up a Star Sizer last week, so once I get the correct sizing dies for it, I should be in Business. I found out i'm going to be getting a bonus check a little over 3 grand. I wonder where that money will go

I used a simple board for a mould guide but I'm sure something a lot better could be designed without much trouble. I used a coffee can behind the MC for the board to rest on and set some lead on the board to hold it solid......Lynn

Check out Ballist-casts MK1V. It is more expenssive than the Magma Master Caster but it is it looks freakin' machine...

AbitNutz,
I have talked to a few people that have used bot, and both like the MK1V, but liked the Master Caster a little better. If they were excatly the same quality, i think I'd like still stick with Magma, just because I use a Star sizer, and but my sizing dies from them. and it is a bit cheaper.

It's a good little machine which uses two moulds. Interesting indeed.

[Sundogg1911]

hmmmm.... 2 molds ya say?
now ya got me thinkin'

[Lloyd Smale]

I didnt know it used two molds myself. Thats got me thinking of one as the only reason i never got a magma was there to slow.

[LAH]

Yes two moulds on a wheel that rotates a full 360. Filling at 12, dumping at 6. The handle works on a rachet set up plus it comes with a cooling fan. Unless things have changed these use only two cavity moulds as the pour spout does remove.

I had one of the manual Ballista Cast MK4 machines, that used 4 moulds, I also had (have) a Master Caster. The Ballista Cast was too complicated and more trouble than what I wanted to fool with. I kept on using the Magma Master Caster.

The Master Caster and Star Package is now (still) for sale.
