Jim wanted to see some photos of me plain basing my latest mould acquisition. My 4 cavity , SAECO # 311.
Today, I plain based the front cavity, leaving the remaining 3 as gas check cavities.
Here are some photos for you Jim.
Some have questioned my use of a conventional drill bit to remove the g/c shank in a .30 cal. mould. I'm no machinist, however I found this " razor sharp " .312" bit and use it on nothing but removing the g/c shank of .30 cal. moulds. For me, it does everything that I want. It cuts a smooth round hole. That's what I wanted the bit to do.
