    I have yet to use it. Been stupid busy at work plus keeping up about 9 yards/lawns and youngest daughter'ssoccer season started. Every free day I seem to have someone is hollering wanting something done (family) and then gets their feelings hurt when I don't immediately drop everything and tend to their needs.

    Finally got some time to run the lee pot today. Thanks dusty bannister for some tin to try. Lots of wrinkles starting the new mold out but if the driving Bada were good I kept them. Seem the pot struggled to get the temp much past 700. It was mid 40s and I was out side. Bottom pour is much easier than ladle for sure.

    Me neither! I keep my alloy clean. Flux EVERY TIME that I add an ingot. I use either a paint stirrer or a carpenter's shim to stir the pot (Lee 4-20). I Flux with cedar bedding. Stir with the paint stirrer or the carpenter's shim. No leaks! Clean alloy it key!

    I've got the Lee 6 hole 120 gr. mold. Works great mages a pile of pretty boolets in a hurry.
