Please add your favorite video's about casting and reloading here.
To get this started I will submit a video made by a member here that goes by the handle mainejunker on youtube and revolver here.

If you want to criticize every last detail please open a new thread, this thread is for helpful tips not bashing the efforts of our cast community.

"this video is private" Can't view it at all. This is not a criticism so I won't open a new thread.

Could not open......

The video is gone even on Youtube, doesn't matter as I subscribe to MainJunker on Youtube. Nice to know his handle here too.

Nevermind, apparently that video I posted was full of what not to do.

[QUOTE=Colohunter;2937488]A video on smelting range lead:


AAAAAAAAAAA " Safety Sally Alert !!!! " AAAAAAAAAAAAA Aluminum pot in video !!! Just thought a heads up was in order.:kidding:

Flux before you pull jackets, do not skim as much as he did! All he is doing is removing tin and antimony from the alloy.

[Colohunter]

Why flux before the jackets are removed?

[skud007]

Good video 62chevy! I was a little hesitant to slug my barrel, and that was a confident booster. New to the casting game and this will definitely help out. I will watch the other videos in this thread when I get a chance. I'm sure they're great :-)

[62chevy]

Glad I could help skud007.

[Pinsnscrews]

Why flux before the jackets are removed?

Flux also helps to meld tin and antimony back into the melt that may have stayed adhered to the jackets. This also helps the jackets to pull more of the trash out of the mix when you pull the jackets, so in effect, it does a double job.

What is the difference between meld and melt??? Sorry for my ignorance.

LOL me too and I had to look it up on one of those free dictionaries that comes with Linux.
