That's a great way to automate the process.. Bravo
Great engineering, nicely done
Great video !
Nice to watch a video without being beat up by the goofy music that I've heard!!
This is awesome 👏🏻 👍🏼👍🏼 I would love to build my own
Dont be put off, give it a go. Get yourself one of my ladles and dripper sets. Thanks for watching
Way to go, Woodsman! I still need to put my PID together. I bought the SSD, and some components, but need the Termocouple, simple switches and wiring, and lastly the kit-box. Time to re-watch that build video by Johnny's Reloading Bench :)
Cheers Adam. What's the stuff you use on your shot makers ramp. We have a job getting jack over this side of the pond. Also mate if you don't mind me asking how wide is the ramp on the Oasis
Thanks for your comment
Woodsman
@@woodsman2433 So sorry for the late reply, Woodsman! I use a graphite spray; much like a paint. I found this at HomeDepot, but I was considering trying the copper grease as you showed. I found that at an auto-parts supply store. I've only run the oasis shot maker twice since getting started with this; I bought a new home and had to uproot all my projects and re-organize my shop/house/reloading life! I'll get you that dimension for the lip ASAP; I just don't have it accessible just now.
Woodsman, the ramp on my ladle is 6.5 inches wide by 1 inch deep. I hope that’s useful to you
@@arizadam12 Thanks mate. Hope you make another video with the shot maker
Woodsman243 i sure will!! Just need to get set up again since the move. :)
I used to use Zebrite black grate polish on my feed ramps.
Charcoal, and French chalk work well to
Is the copper lubricant HI TEMP Anti-Seaze compound?
Excellent
Great job!
Many thanks
Another good Video, I'm interested in what you could put together dripper wise and at what cost. Many thanks.
All my products will be available soon at
nigtt@russianslugmould.com
Ladels, Drippers and accessories will be available on ebay in the next week or so
cheers

Respekt!!!
Möchte ich auch eine bauen. Wie groß löcher hast du gemacht wo das Blei rausfliesst?
Mfg Attila
I need number 4 bird shot can any of these make it ?
How to communicate with you and is there a delivery to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Woodsman why is it more difficult to consistently make #8 shot when compared to 7.5??
You need a dripper with .45mm hole or 0.018 thou
What's the smallest size you can make?
Great video. What kind of grease should I use on the ramp? Thanks in advance.
Copper grease from auto motive supplies, or alternatively soap stone or french chalk works well to
@@woodsman2433 can you provide a link with the description of the pump on where to get on? Thanks

@@woodsman2433 thanks. Purchased.
Woodsman243 what is the point of the ramp
What temperature is the coolent, and what height from tip of ramp to coolent?
Keep your coolant at 40 degrees C. Assuming your coolant is fabric conditioner, and the edge of the ramp needs to be almost touching the coolant and at very max no more than 5mm away
bonjour ou acheté la pièce en aluminium .merci
Where did you get the dripper plate I couldn't find one
Hi Joe what did you mean by Dripper Plate?
Gostava de comprar uma peça dessas se me desse o contacto ou me vende se um
What tool was that to purge the drippers I have to start making my own shot the only problem is I have to buy the lead I can’t find it for free so I’m wondering if it’s worth it what are your thoughts thank you
If you can get scrap lead then its more than worth it you will have to buy Antimony. I am currently making lead shot for around £5 for 10 Kilos that includes my Antimony, Tin and Electric
thanks for watching
Woodsman.
Ladels and Drippers etc available on EBay
What is the angle of the ladle and ramp?
15 degrees
thanks for watching
What is the temperature of the coolent?
Keep it hovering around 100 Fahrenheit
What's is the wattage on your element?
1500W No Thermostat
@@woodsman2433 Is that 1500W for the 2 rings, so each ring is 750W?
Im having a hard time finding a 1500W single burner here in Canada.
Thanks
@@GoldCountryTrapping The unit in the video has two elements, the smaller one is 1000w the larger is 1500w. Have you watched y latest video on building a shot maker give it a look
many thanks
Woodsman243
@@woodsman2433 Yeah, I did watch it. Probably a little beyond my electrical comfort zone. Its not easy to find a 1500w element here for some reason.
I think I might be better off going with propane to ensure I have the heat required. No problems with your ladle on propane?
@@GoldCountryTrapping No problem using a gas burner, just try and keep your lead from going above 700 degrees, thats when you will start to get problems like popping shot and disformed shot
Hello what is the degree from sliding
Shot maker is set around 15 degrees
@@woodsman2433 thanks sir
Do you know why my shot is flat doughnut shaped.
?
Explain your set up Ron and I will try to help
@@woodsman2433 I have a setup vertuly same as you,but coolent diluted quite a lot with conditioner ,quarter of inch drop coolant 12 inches deep,water temp,40c,lead temp ?.
@@ronboult8947 Hi Ron, the coolant I use is very thin to start with (cheap brand). Lead temperature 350 Celsius (680 Fahrenheit max). Ramp is pretty much touching the coolant
How hot do you try to keep it
365 degress Celsius
PID takes care of that
tell me what kind of liquid you use ?
Fabric conditioner, what you use in your washing machine
Thanks
We're did you buy your fittings
what do you mean by fittings. PID temp controller Mypin off eBay as well as thermocouplers.
Where the lead is dropping from is that not some type of cap
@@johnwalters7415 CNC machined Drippers, available from myself. Contact details in description
John Walters u ok
Are you using steal or Ali drippers
These are Steel Drippers, last longer, less easily damages and the flow of lead dose not enlarge the dripper hole size after time, cost more to make though, bugger to drill
Thanks for watching
Woodsman
Nice one, when are they going on eBay I’ll take one. What angle did you have the hot plate at? Is the secret just to cover the top of the drippers?
Hello Matthew thanks for your reply
The hot plate/ hob is set up at 18 Degrees
all products available atnigtt@russianslugmould.com
Woodsman243 can’t find anything on russianslugmould.com
Should be on in the next couple of days
@@woodsman2433 If the hot plate is at 18Degrees what angle does the lead shot fall onto the plate at and roll into the liquid?
@@dougschow3298 Hi Doug thanks for watching.The ramp to liquid needs to be around 30 degrees. Ive also sent you a reply on Gmail
All the best
like listening to paint dry... learn to edit!
II will have to watch some of your videos so I can learn
many thanks
