I didn't want to highjack GregInAtls' thread so I thought I'd ask this also.
I'm just getting into casting my own also and haven't really started because it's been so freaking cold outside. I don't have a garage or out building to do it in. I live in a 1 1/2 story log home without a basement. There is a large loft on the second floor but I do have a work shop off the end of the loft that is approx. 12'X14'. The only problem with doing in there is.. My propane furnace is in that room also and it gets some of it's return air from that room. I don't want lead fumes pushed through the house through the air ducts. What I am proposing to do is mount a range hood over the work bench and vent it out with the exhaust from the forced air furnace exhaust. What are everyones thoughts on this idea? will it work?
