Lee Drip-O-Matic Art

If you can't fix it, take a picture and call it art.

That is very cool. Thanks for posting.

Who would have thunk: art from our hobby! I'll go to you opening if it is down by the river or over the hill.

You could also make little people, one drop at a time, and horsies, and dragons! If only I had the patience to do it. It would probably be better to use pewter for this project though.

Looks like something from a horror movie!
Unfortunately, I can't try and emulate your talent 'cos my RCBS doesn't drip :twisted:

Now that is the "silk purse from a sows ear" thing, I like it!

I didn't work this one at all; that is how it hit my ingot mold I use to catch drips. I have thought about taking a piece of aluminum foil or a pie pan and turning it to "create" something a little more exciting (After I drop a couple hundred bullets of course).

I will probably be a one hit wonder though. I haven't met too many bonafide artist I want to hang out with and I would rather shoot than sip wine in a gallery.

Gosh, I didnt realize how much 'art' I was throwing out.:drinks:
Every casting session I get a couple different pieces of 'art'.
BTW: Is a couple pieces of 'art' all the things folks have to complain about the Lee pot?

I didnt realize how much 'art' I was throwing out. Which is more useful? Art or BOOLITS?

[DavZee]

Perhaps if you work on different lighting and close up angles it would look even more interesting. With digital photography it doesn't cost anything now.

Need to get a better camera. I would call this temporary art like building sand castles and stuff. Enjoy it for a moment, melt it, and mold it into something really beautiful like a .452 200 gn SWC.

Maybe I should have posted it in the Humor Section.

When I get a nice piece of 'art', that is when the pot is hot enough to start casting.

[wmitty]

Label it vintage something or other and post it on evil bay... someone will buy it!

My first drip-o-matic is suppose to be in the mail, hopefully I won't become an artist. lol

I once had a full 20lb Lee pot drip out and onto picnic table top. Abstract art
