Lee PrecisionLead Ladle

Perfect, just what I wanted

Shipped fast was exactly what I was looking for well made

The laddle works as intended I used it for some woods metals and they didn't stick after cooling which was fantastic

Quite surprised by the size of the ladle. I bought this to keep in my lead pot to help stir in flux, stir my pot, and remove dross. Here's some other notes:Pros:- Cheap. I only paid like $5 for the thing, so I shouldn't have expected much.- The handle appears sturdy and should last a long time.- Wood handle won't heat up if it's left in the melting pot. It will burn if it gets too hot, so I'll have to watch this.Cons:- The "spoon" part is far smaller than I expected. I would like it to be a tad bigger.- The metal it is constructed out of seems to be thinner metal than I would expect/like. I would have liked it to be built out of a sturdier/thicker metal.Overall, this ladle works fine for what I bought it for. I just wish there were a few changes to it. I guess for $5 anymore, you can't expect too much. I would recommend this ladle, but just note the shortcoming's I've mentioned, and you won't be disappointed.I hope I have helped your purchasing decision of this product.

I bought this for my father, who does not do computers, smart phones or anything internet related.We're both gun guys and he does a ton of Black power Competitions and rendezvous. He much prefers to cast his own projectiles and hasn't bought any in going on 30 years now, he just collects lead and makes batch after batch. Apparently, he lost his last ladle and asked me to order him one. This was what he wanted, and he is very happy with it. Coming from an old Crotchety guy, that's pretty good! :)

It is a small dipper, made for smaller mold pours

Did not use,so can't speak to the item itself, ordered based on the picture. Too small for my application. Bad on me...

Works well skimming the pot
