Hmm Yes my fav hobbie the quest for lead . Yeah Lead is a keeper - Great weight to size

Due to it's low melt temp also Zinc is one for the future , But it wont be for some time with Zinc compared to Lead
that seems bullish at this time



No need to repeat all the important above members fact's , BUT wadarbr549 's advice particular to WATER is key
There is a definite smell to lead vapors , It's sneaky cause it will fool you . It is WAY More unhealthy
compared to the smell that seems tolerable . I pick a day with a definite one direction wind.

Simply stated you can go outdoor fire pit - cast iron pot & molds - thats what I do . Also you can make your own oven with brick & air supply, using hard woods to burn . Naturally a spot for cast iron pot up top ,
does that get Hottttt ? OH Yes like a torch . Ya gotta love it !!

But sure legitimate electric ovens are probably the easiest way , but for me i like the whole red hot Cole thing
.

Don't wast your time with batteries just so you know .
there is some lead but much of the lead just chars .
