    Botton pour spout design

    Does anyone have drawings or at least pictures of what the bottom pour spout and rod from a balisticast or magma casting system look like? I'm fabricating and would prefer to do what already works.

    Thanks in advance

    The rod looks like a sharp pencil with maybe a 45 degree angle.
    The seat has the same angle.
    Both are harden steel.
    Don't like being hammered by the Cast Boolits Staff, then don't be a nail.
    The rules are simple to follow.

    3/8" diameter, there abouts. Steeper angle than 45 degs, maybe 60 degs ?
