Been pouring a few ingots for the last week or so, 909 pounds of wheel weight ingots and 142 pounds of wheel weights with 10% lead added, total of 1051 pounds. Hope my little table does not collapse!  ronnie |

You must have done a great job on that table! That's quite a bit of lead!

Sean, I'm surprised the table has held together! And the casting starts tomorrow!

I got lucky on the majority of it, guy on cast boolits wanted to sell what he said was about 380 pounds of WW , he was only an hour from here. I was at work so my step son went to pick it up for me, 380 pounds wound up being 618 pounds in raw WW , ingots and old cast bullets. This should last me for a while.

Your ingot mould assortment looks a lot like mine. I own a few from NOE, but most are what ever cast iron piece I could find. Teddy bears, perch, corn bread wedge, biscuit pan, etc. ronnie |

I managed to reduce the pile of wheel weights by about 700 pounds, That 700 pounds now looks like this,  There is also 5 of the 50 caliber ammo cans sitting beside the table that are 1/2 to 3/4 full. All painted up and ready for sizing,   Colors are, John Deere yellow, John Deere green, deep purple, signal black, gecko green, neon pink, pearl copper, signal white, signal red, and signal gray. I didn't clean out the tumbler completely between colors is the reason for the white not being whiter. |
