You're buying a Ferrari. Don't skimp on the paint job!

Well I guess that’s that!

Polishing doesn’t affect the ETA much at all.
I’m still on regular stainless at the moment. Thin will be coming up next.

Let me know if you need anything else from me to get on your list. Thanks!

Yes, as shiny as you can get it. lol

As a former owner of a bullet casting shop, I can help you out here. The easiest way to get shiny castings is to use linotype or another alloy with a generous amount of tin.

If you are using something closer to pure lead, you'll need to heat the mold up to the lowest temp that will work. Typically you'll have to reject a sizeable portion of your casts at that temperature.

Either way, the shine will start dulling in a couple of hours as the lead oxidizes unless you clearcoat it with something. Or you can give it a quick polish with a scotchbrite pad. There are some cowboy action shooters that like the silver bullet look enough to do this.

I would like to order a Large LEAD, this is the first request.

Lead???

Should we tell him it's a joke?

Do these things actually exist, or are they just a myth?
Bait used to lure us back time after time?

I've been on 'the list' for years in theory.

They actually really do exist!
The standard s/s ones right now. If you wanted a standard plate you would have been set to go years ago. However, I do have an aluminum plate of my own that I will be listing in classifieds because I will never be going to paradise to dive in the foreseeable future. I figure someone else will get more use out of it than me. It’s a large.

I have a lot of inventory in regular 1/8” 10 GA stainless and they have been going out.
The thin stainless plates are coming up next.
Aluminum has been discontinued. Everyone listed as wanting aluminum will have the option to get a thin stainless plate when they are notified.
The rail has also been discontinued.
The wedge, both in standard and heavy versions is what’s available now.

They exist, I have two, if I somehow end up with a light stainless I would sell the standard with rail.

I'll keep my eye out for it, if a Large will fit 5'10", 220lb diver.

It was meant in jest; somehow I keep picking the materials not in production
