    Welcome aboard. A lot of good people with only an occasional grouch thrown in. All glad to help if they can. Where about are you located? Dennis AKA Iron Whittler

    I will say, I don't plan on asking any questions for quite some time. I'm currently on page 33 of "from ingot to target" that's in the stickies. That one document will surely guide me through casting for my 454 casull.

    nhyrum,
    Welcome to the forum.
    Don't be afraid to ask questions at any point in time.
    It is surely wise to dig into a book like you have, in order to gain the technical vocabulary to ask better questions...but again, we welcome any questions at any level.

    A large portion of questions pondered by new members are usually about the many acronyms we use here (that are exclusive to this hobby). This sticky will surely help you out.

    Welcome from Canada. I started casting a few years ago now and still have a ton of things to learn or try. Its a very interesting endeavour. Read the powder coating forums also. I think that's the future of lubing cast boolits.
    I'm the gun totin, meat eatin', BIBLE readin', redneck conservative your mother always warned you about.

    Welcome Neal, tons of great knowledge on this site.

    If someone farts in a crowded elevator....it was probably the guy with the tool case.
