Saugerman Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Crock pots do not get hot enough to melt plastic. A least none of mine ever have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteSS Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Presto or Lee pots. I have some for sale if interested PM me. ...Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolinamike Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 SlabSlayer, Bill's presto pot will probably be better for you for tube dipping. I have the 20oz Lee pots and even if you lean your rod sideways and spin your rod, you still can't make them but so long. The presto pot gives you a much more variety of lengths to choose from.

SHK Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 even a presto doesnt leave much room. best bet is a Rite Heat pot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
