Anyone want in?


40 sticks give us a 10 cent discount and 100 sticks gives us a 15 cent discount.

That may not seem like a lot but it’s about a 5% discount.

when you factor in the shipping savings it does help out.
Saving $10 on shipping spread out over 40 plus the 10 cent discount works to a 35 cent savings per stick.
14% savings

Again not a huge $$ deal but if a few of us wanted to stock up on lube it would at least pay for the shipping.
I’m good for 10-20 sticks

Potential Orders

Me -20
Caveman -20
MAC1911 -20

I was planning on purchasing the ingredients to make my own pan lube but if this happens, I would be interested in the getting either RC or BAC. I don't know how many sticks would equal a pound.

He also sells bulk blocks if you want to pan lube.
I made my own once. I’ve look at a lot of recipes too. I don’t think anything is going to smell as nice as the stuff he smells.
I guess 50/50 would smell good.
 
Made my own toilet rings, paraffin and 2-stroke oil - worked great, clean bored and never a spot of leading but smokes real bad.

I have a couple of sample lubes that I should try out but coated bullets are just easier to deal with.
If I had a .452 die for the sizer I'd try some lubed for the mp-452-200.

Im usually a cheap caster BUT the homemade lube was just not the way O want to save my money or spend my time. Figure all the money saved on lead over the years I can afford $20 or so worth of lube.
2500 lube works great for everything I use it for it does not stink and it does not smoke much .
 
Yes, I would be in for 2 of the Carnauba Red 1# Blocks. Not much and could do a 3rd pound if you need to meet a certain quantity. Thanks.
Got it. No special quantity at all.
I’ll work on an order this week and get all the details.

So that was YOU on the line at the CMP New England Games? [laugh] Seriously, I had to pause and wait for smoke to clear during a rapid fire stage. Though someone might be using a smokey powder but was told that it was likely to be lube that was causing that much smoke.
 
checking in on this. I didn’t want to miss something if I owe someone money for a product. I’m up in NH now so let me know what would work best for getting funds down to you and getting the sticks.
