and so it's time to play in the yard. It's going to be really hot, so why not sit around a pot of lead!
First...... the dirty part. And no, I do not cast from this pot. This is an old one that is dedicated to smelting and I don't want/need a bigger one because this one will melt them about as fast as I can test them with the cutters and sort. Besides, my ol' wrist gets tired before a pot finishes anyway. Stick-on weights go on the left, clip-ons on the right, steel and zinkers in the coffee can with the clips.
(I do plan to quit smelting very soon, so I don't need/want to upgrade or change my setup or methods just now.)
(That's just water in the red can in the background. The coffee can on the table is for clips.)
