Good evening,
Recently when I fired up the pot to cast some Minies, as soon as I opened the sprue plate it just fell off.... The screw had cracked through and completely broken. After about fifteen minutes of choice words and... "creative" solutions, I was able to remove the bottom half of the screw from the mold body.
This is the screw. The mold is an older Ohaus I bought recently and never used until my failed attempt. My question is, is there a source for these screws? I know they haven't been made for some time. I noticed that Lyman sells a "rebuild" kit for their molds, though I don't know if the screw is the same, and also all I need is the one singular screw, not a whole set.
Thanks for any and all help.
