Would a 2 1/2" x 1 1/2" x 8" ingot fit in most electric pots?
Would a 2 1/2" x 1 1/2" x 4" be better? Thanks.

Most guys are using a 20# pot & while an ingot that is as big as the 8" will fit, it will also take longer to melt & reduce casting temps. I use 4" ingots, about 3# each.
Yeah, it will probably fit in there, may have to wait for quite a while for it to melt. Its is gonna suck up the heat and probably thicken your entire melt until it gets up to temp.

GOA and FPC have done more in the last decade than your NRA has done in it's entire existence... Support the ones that actually do something for you.
