    Smile Got to try the new smelter!

    I got a Bayou Classic burner HP, and a HF cast pot 12" filled it about 2/3 full ( all I am going to lift) of range scrap started at 12:50 it was melted and fluxed and skimmed at 1:25 not bad when you are use to a Colman stove with white gas. I got 53# out of the scrap. This is going to be a joy to use.

    Very interesting little cricket, but try this.
    Lift the empty pot and put in on the smelter,
    then add the weight to the pot.
