They exist thanks to the perseverance of four collectors. You mentioned two, but we must also mention the other two: Jean-Guy Muriel and Guillaume Bretegnier, who is sharing his showcase, Épopées.

Only worried about the Minimum load capacity. My guess is it needs at least 1 Kg of alloy which can Never be used for Casting. A bitter fact as the Price for the needed high quality Metal has recently raised to all times hights . Anyway certainly worth considering.
Thank You

« Last post by WolfgangBonn on October 11, 2025, 04:25:45 PM »Thank you both. I used to own a Lee melter but had no luck with it. The outlet never stopped Leaking and the design was useless as the room inside of the melter was blocked by some release arm for the button valve. I am about to get one from EBay similar to the one I posted in my initial Mail. The seller will post from a german adress within days. The specs appear to be slightly better than the PA one (Watt, Control dials etc.). At about 50€ not that much of a loss if things do go wrong.

It is developed for fishing and shooting practice,
but works fine with rather small amounts of alloy.
BUT - you need to buy a bigger melting pot.
I bought my melting pot from Berliner Zinnfiguren, but it is no longer available.
