Rust on your reloading dies

[alamogunr]

I keep all my dies in the original box. Even though my shop is heated and A/C, I put one of those little desiccant capsules
that come in prescription bottles. I got a bunch of them from my pharmacist. They just throw them away. For my situation they should last 4-5 months.
I do the same for iron molds.

Bet I could fill a coffee can daily with those little descant thingies.

Anyone want lots of powder covered cotton/synthetic cotton? I could make a pillow weekly with the stuff we throw away.

Now if someone could only find a good way to grind the bottles into fine bits for use as a buffer in cast loads......

You must be a pharmacist. My son is a pharmacist and his company services nursing homes and assisted living facilities. He told me
that they probably throw away a 5 gallon bucket a week. He is too far away for me to bother him with those things.

BTW, how do I add an avatar to my profile?

I have been a pharmacist for almost 25 years now. All in retail.
I hate to think of how many of those things I throw away in a year. Well, not me so much as my techs. They do the heavy lifting, I just manage them.

Adding an avatar is pretty simple.

Click on your user name to get this drop down menu. On lower left select Avatar.


You then get this box. Click the "choose file" under upload new custom avatar. Then select the desired photo on your computer or tablet. File size isn't a huge deal but smaller files do load faster.

Sorry if the screen shots are huge, blame Steve Jobs.
