I don't know what others of you do to get the sprues back in the pot without splattering hot lead all over. I never could really get it to work, so I made myself a tray out of sheet steel (aluminum would have been a lot lighter and probably easier) and it works pretty darn good. I thought some of you might find it interesting so here is a picture. The hood fits the diameter of my Lee and RCBS 20 pound pots.
