Stars Want to Sell/Want to Buy / Re: WTB Star Lube/Sizer spring assembly and pressure screw

« on: June 28, 2015, 09:35:20 am »

I've been a member of Cast Boolits for over 7 years now but I use the handle of Cajun Shooter on that forum. I've used the Star since 1970 and as I posted in my OP, I'm aware that the needed parts may be purchased from Magma as I 'm also a registered buyer with them for many years.
Looking for a better deal as I live on a fixed income. Later David

Stars Want to Sell/Want to Buy / WTB Star Lube/Sizer spring assembly and pressure screw

« on: June 26, 2015, 09:57:30 am »

I purchased a Star lube/sizer that was from the San Diego period. After cleaning out the old grease, I found that the spring assembly had been brazed because of a earlier breakage. They brazed a flat washer onto the screw assembly which allows the press to work but not as it was designed. To correct this back yard work, I'll need to replace both the main pressure spring and the upper screw assembly. I'm hoping that someone has these parts from a old sizer or parts machine. Thanks for any help in this matter. I know that the parts may be purchased from Magma but I live on SS and was hoping to purchase some used parts for the replacement. Later David
