Ideal spur plate

[Bullseye54]

Howdy boys ,
I'm looking for a spur plate and screw for an Ideal 575-213 Minie Mold.. Mould was my Dads and I have no clue how the spur plate and screw went missing..
Thanks, Joe

You can buy replacement plates direct from Lyman, which should fit your Ideal mould.

Also, here is a company I found with a Google search that makes good looking new plates and rebuild kits.

Good luck.

Rebuild kits are available on ebay too http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lyman-Mould-Rebuild-Kit-LARGE-SINGLE-Cavity-NEW-2680100-/221189696399?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item337feeeb8f This includes the sprue plate, screws, and washer.

You can get rebuild kits from Midway USA.

Wow .. And I thought I was going to get skunked on this one.. Ordered a kit, 9. bucks...
Didn't know Ideal and Lyman were one in the same..
The old mould will be resurrected after a 40 year hiatus!
Thank You for the Help
