    A perfect time to cast

    I plan on starting around 11AM and at 20 degrees plan on casting till 1- 1:30 if I can last that long . I think that takes care of what to do / see on TV today!/Ed

    Oh, don't watch tv and cast simultaneously today or you WILL unwittingly make CANNON BALLS.
    If it was easy, anybody could do it.

    Watching anything other than what you are doing is more likely to result in fried balls!

    Casting is sort of like eating bacon. Its always a perfect time for it.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    Sounds like a plan. For some reason I seem to cast better boolits when I am a bit irritated, angry, or generally ticked off. Kind of a reset button for me. After I have cast a slew of nice looking ones, I am happier, the grass is greener, and the air is sweeter (well, maybe not if I have smelted a bunch of soww's).

    I have a 6-cav of the Lee 356-95-RF that's due tomorrow...it was supposed to get here this past Monday.
    And, I only have the 20# potful and about a dozen more ingots of my pet alloy until I can score some more COWWs to smelt and find another pewter dealer. Maybe I can find someone with ingots of WW who needs some soft Pb...I have a good bit of that, in ingots, as well as two sailboat keels and some pipe.
