Just enough tips to get by on for a short time. It doesn't take me all that much time to set up my equipment. Besides I rather be shoot'in than cast'in any day._
I agree with Snuffy. In short, unless one eats lead based paint, one does not have to be overly concerned about "lead poisoning".I sense a lot of unfounded fear about lead exposure in the above posts. I have my lead level tested every 2 years, the highest was @ 7.0.
Smoke won't kill you, lead fumes are only generated above 1200 degrees, not obtainable with our electric furnaces/pots. Most important is cleanliness. For your hands so you won't transfer lead into your mouth when eating. A thorough wash of your hands and face gets it off. Lead does NOT enter your body through unbroken skin.
Smelting is always done outside. ...and got interesting, once, when the sky spontaneously started dropping 1/2" hail into 60 lbs of alloy on a warm, clear day. There wasn't much I could do, but stand back and watch the show until it stopped. I still have a coffee can full of that "confetti" around here somewhere.
