    My Dad used to make those chairs when he was able. I didn't like them back then, either. I sure don't like the plastic ones. I cast standing up, or occasionally lean on a four legged stool, but not often....

    Did I ever mention that I hate to trim brass?

    My pot stand is a stack of solid concrete blocks with a board fastened to the top. It would take a lot to tip it over.

    Seat is an old office chair on casters. I could back it up in a hurry if something happened.

    Leather welding gloves and apron, eye protection, leather boots, of course.

    I have always had a 5 gallon bucket of water close enough to douse any burn quickly. Ten seconds is all it takes for a first degree burn to become third degree.

    I worked around big, dangerous machinery for much of my career. Realized early on that I must never lose my fear of it. Assume that it has an evil spirit that is consciously thinking about how to get you. Same with hot lead.
