[QUOTE="Rayce, post: 3553164, member: 8402"] I suggest using a thermometer to watch your tempature, if you get the lead to hot, it will splatter when pouring into ingots. Always wear long pants, sleeves, gloves and glasses. I used an old grill with cast iron pot for a long time. Then switched to the big propane fryer eye. It heated up a lot quicker, but got the lead to hot. So now I use a thermometer to keep at the right temp. Most of the weights will be marked in some way for content I use an old stainless steel spoon I drilled a bunch of small holes in it to retrieve all the clips and zinc weights out. I flux with bees wax ( hobby lobby has pure blocks available). I like to finish a pot, pour it into ingots, then set to the side for a few minutes, then load it up with material and back to the fire.
