New Lee Pot

[papaperch]

Finally got tired of my 30+ old Lee pot dripping and burning me. First 15 years or so it was a pleasure to work with. These last few years it was more pain than anything else. Took it all apart and cleaned everything several times but it never got better.

Its all my fault I am not one to give up on something if its showing a little wear and tear. My wife is constantly giving me grief about not throwing away some of my clothes.

Anyway went with a little different style this time. The dispenser is straight up and down and the spout is controlled with a screw. After using 2 days I find I am completely happy with it.

Should have done it a lot sooner. Lesson learned . Maybe http://www.barlowstackle.com/Assets/ProductImages/Molds/453039.jpg

The above link is the one I got.

Lee will send you a new or reconditioned pot at half price if you send the old one back to them. You might want to look into that and replace your old one as a backup.

Thnx for the link Sm. Was trying to remove a broken bit out of the pour spout on a 4-20. Tapping didn't work and I might have cracked the weld. Also got my ol faithful IV, that has seen way better days, that needs some TLC. Had that pot for 28 years and maybe emptied it 3 times.

That's the one that I have! I LOVE IT!!!! It sure makes less scrap when you can put the mold right up on the nozzle to pour! Granted, it wont work well for pouring some of the larger 'wire' baits, but then you can just dip a pouring ladle into the lead and fill the mold...
