I wish I could take credit for the pot upgrades, but it's a kit I bought off Ebay.
I cannot tell You the quality and craftsmenship that is in this upgrade. It is all CNC machined and makes casting much easier then the stock mould guide. I really like the way it gets the support rod out of the way.
Check it out, worth every penny.
As far as castring, I am fairly new to it. I've been reloading for several years now, and the process of casting looked very cool to Me. I love doing any type of mechanical monkeying around.
I built My version of a indoor casting booth.
Then I vented it through the window to the outside.
