My issue is melting pot. Im OK with cast iron and ss pot but not deep enough. I've looked at the 4-20 and drips won't bother me. Other pot was the 20 lb melter and Lyman ladle. I e got a 6 quart Dutch oven that hasn't been used in 20 years but that seems kind of big considering my luck of finding lead at any decent cost. Roto metals is right at $75.00 for the first 20 lbs I would like to buy. I bought welding gloves and have glasses to wear when casting. Already burnt a few fingers without them. So what I'm looking to buy is a pot, thermometer, and a good ladle anyway. Still have to buy a sizing die and lube. I think my cart is around $200.00 right now. That's with 20 lbs of lead from roto metals. I was up until 4:30 this morning putting one pot in and taking it out and adding a different one maybe ten times as I was reading reviews and watching videos. Seems most videos are 99% bottom pour pots. I guess my main concern is cleaning the pot after use and the adjustments on the bottom pour.
