I have not but there is an Ideal 375300 mold which Pedufa sent several of us samples

Anyway, I bought it off eBay believing that the base band on the 375300 is 378 and previous owner marked it 379.  But why there is no Ideal stamping on the mold is a mystery

JB,
They might be Ideal/Lyman modified blocks but, what makes you think it's a Ideal mold?

The mold uses SHCS (Allen heads), larger dowels and the retaining screws, for the handles are in the top of the mold. None of those are Lyman/Ideal features.

John Boy, I do not think the mold is an Ideal look at the handle mounting screws entering under the cut off and the cutoff stop is a allen socket head.
If you have Darr mold look at it and they are the same set up.
here is a shot of Darr 322190E. Hard to see the marking on the side of mine but they are lightly electro-penciled just like the one shown.
Just found a copy of the Darr catalogue I have from the 70s. 379300 is listed in it. Looks like Frank and I posted the same thoughts.

Gentlemen - thanks fot the block identification not being an Ideal.  I didn't go that far into the mold specifics.  Stopped at the 379300 mold number even though it was not stamped with any of the normal Ideal lettering.  Thought the scribed 379300 was strange so that it was a Ideal blank mold
