A friend showed me a garage sale find, a Lyman Mould master XX pot with a Weston thermometer sticking out of about 15 lbs. lead. No cord. He asked what it was worth and I replied "I'll trade you that $25 worth of lockwork you owe me". He quickly accepted and I loaded it before he changed his mind. It looks to be in great shape. I will probably hardwire a cord and give it a try.
