The cat is out of the bag.

Howdy Pards,

I'm happy to announce here on CAS City that the cat is finally out of the bag.  I'm now manufacturing my own Big Lube® LLC molds.  This means that as my stock of LEE molds is depleted, I'll be re-supplying from my own manufacture.  The handles and many of the other parts of your existing Big Lube molds will fit.  Here's the good part.  The prices will remain the same with no increase in the immediate future.

Watch for the new SLIM designs and Spherical (round ball) molds in Six cavity design soon.  Big Lube® LLC will be more nimble with new bullet mold designs.

There are some significant changes to the new Big Lube® LLC molds and these will be announced in the upcoming Big Lube Bulletin.  I'll also post the newsletter on my web site in PDF form as soon as it's ready.

I've been delivering my own Big Lube® LLC molds for some time now, but I've come to the tipping point where my inventory is now well over half of my own manufacture.  So, it's about time to run up the flag and see who salutes it.

Soon, I'll be able to sell from inventory only and now have any wait or back order situation to deal with.  It's taken a bit, but it's finally done.  Wish me luck.

Howdy Pitmaster,

The Snakebite molds shipped from my machinist/engineer this afternoon.  The ought to get here around Tuesday next week.  I'll be filling back orders then.

Your new Big Lube® LLC mold will include a Bull Plate sample and instructions for use.  Also included will be the words of the original designer, Pard Snakebite, himself.  I try to do that for all the Big Lube® LLC molds I sell.  I think it adds to the enjoyment of shooting bullets that were designed by fellow pards.

Regards,

They look good, DD. I noticed some differences from the old ones.
Does freezing hurt your brass cleaning solution? Mine was left on the porch for a few nights..... ::)

Congradulations DD, glad this enterprise is working out well for you.   I love all my Big Lube™ molds.   You also taught me how to put the ™ in my posts.

Congratulations DD! I'll be going to your site and ordering a ROA mould and probably one for the wife's new, yet to arrive pair of 38/357 SASS version of the NMV! She is new to shooting apart from a smattering of military training in China and doesn't know about them at this stage. They will be arriving later in the month hopefully.

You should make yourself know on the Cast Boolit site, I visit her and there daily and they are always clamouring for group buys, I've fallen prey to temptation there many, many times. I'd rather shoot business your way than to Lee, they get enought of my business with me loading on five of their presses and using scores of their dies, primer tools, powder throwers, manuals, etc. You are welcome to use my name to introduce your self if you wish, or I will post a notice announcing it. They pprabably all know you anyway.

Nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, they have been desperately trying to get a 22cal group buy going :D

Thanks for your support Pards,

Dalton, sent you an emule on that freezing question.

4 Fingers, got your order.  Thanks.  I'd like to hear back on how that new mold design works out for you.  A lot of skull work went into designing it.

I need one of the .454 ball molds. There is talk of a Group Buy for ball moulds over at Castboolits.com, and I mentioned your moulds. Hopefully yours will be out soon 'cause I know you could sell a bunch of them over there as well as here.

DD,  Just a quick note to let you know that the MAGMA molds that you had made for me work like a charm. So ggod in fact that I just bought a second Magma casting machine. The new design on the EPP-UG looks really good and casts likewise. I'll get the JP 200 and 38 Snakebie running this weekend.

Got it Pitmaster.

Looks like I'll be very busy filling BOs for Snakebite molds tomorrow or Wednesday.  I'll be brewing up another batch of PL-II also.  The support shown by you pards is a mite humbling.  I'll do my best to deserve it.
