[QUOTE="okietom, post: 2329776, member: 18710"] A manual. If I ever cast again I will want a casting thermometer. I will also use a simple pot with a ladle. A cast iron cornbread mold will make ingots. I used a saucepan that had the handle missing as a casting pot. A well ventilated area not in your house, (use a fan too). A piece of hard wood to open molds with, (to hit the sprue plate). Safety glasses or face shield. Long sleeves. A coleman stove will be good for melting lead, a turkey fryer is too much. An electric hot plate would work. A pair of plyers to drop hot rejects back into the pot. [/QUOTE]
