Yes, hadn't seen Jeff's but made up a couple some years back. I cut a section out of the body rather than right at the end, made it easier to clean. Can leave the cylinder floating on the lead to keep it hot between pours. I did find the cylinder cooled quickly versus a normal small ladle dipper. But, if the cylinder is kept very hot and the spout hole is large enough, you can press the spout into the sprue hole of the mould when filling and save having that surplus lead all over the sprue cutter that has to be dropped back into the pan. Much the same as with the electric melters.
