  • Flux

  • Comrade, which metals would you recommend to mix with lead?

  • tin

  • how much is a lee furnace

  • 149.00

  • when you get that little bit of "over fill" or whatever on the mold its self, when you knock that off should it be trashed or can it be re melted down? i would assume it would be safe because its fairly clean, but i just wanted to double check for safety.

  • Put it right back into your pot. It's perfectly safe and clean.

  • And what is the best temperature to cast?

  • I have a question. How are you using the 220 volt furnace when outlets are generally 110 volts? Thanks

  • shouldnt a breathing aparatus be used as well thats probably not good on the lungs

  • @Tacticalreview dosent tin makes the mix melt faster, but it gets harder than just pure lead?

  • why don't you add the flux when making ingots? Is it because there is to much trash from the weights?

  • Why do yo not put something over your mouth and nose?

  • At 5:25 you added something into the pot, what was it?

  • i think thye mold had oil or some kind of fluid in it that boilled and blew up

  • yea i always make shure the molds hot and free of debris. i was using an old one i found in an auction box and started cold. my n a friend decided to use some toy car bodys which i think were zinc and or tin. anyway id just poored a round when we were waiting for it to harden it exploded spraying liquid metal seemingly everywhere around us but not on us. WE WERE EXTREMELY LUCKY THAT DAY. the metak burned into the counter top that could have been our skin or eyes
