What make mold handles will fit a NEI mold? I have tried the Lee and they are too thick to fit the mold.
Thanks,
bigboar
RCBS fit them

I have ground the Lee 6 cav handles down to fit just fine

You cut them, the mold or the lee handles?

Always cut the cheap part, LEE handles

The handles are designed for the LEE 6-cavity moulds. You end up with three handles on the LEE 6-cavity mould actually, one extra is a handle to break the sprue plate loose.
But the long dual handle LEE's are less than $20 and can be grinded a bit, or maybe the hole elongated, for mounting to single, dual, three, or four cavity moulds of other brands. It is a very handy cost savings trick.
I have no means to do that what do you suggest?
