    Lee Press breakage

    Hi all
    Have just had the connector for the handle on my Lee Challenger press break. It looks like it is cast and I can't find replacement parts online. The press is about 20 years old and has been well used. The Lee website doesn't seem to have any similar looking parts so can these cast pats be welded? Or does anyone have an idea where I can locate a replacement. many thanks for any assistance that is offered. Regards Ruger7mm

    Mine broke in exactly the same way. It must be a weak point on this Lee press.

    Looks not terrible part to make a new one.

    If you get real stuck message me. Though a new press maybe cheapest
