I've seen them before and they're usually "homemade" from angle iron and I'd like to get one or two of them. If I remember correctly, they cast about four rectangular bars that stack perfectly in a USPS Small Flat Rate box without shifting around during shipping. The bars can then be placed vertically in the common Lyman, Lee, or RCBS pots for melting. It doesn't have to be fancy but I do need ones that release without too much fuss. I've shipped the traditional Lyman and Lee ingot bars before but they're a pain to stack and have to be taped together. Please PM me if you have something like this or know where I can find them. Thanks!

Check with joe-leadslinger...see if his will fit those boxes.

I have a pair of these and they are great but I don't ship lead, I receive it & don't know about these ingots for shipping.

If Joe's are too long, he can make you any length you want to fit the boxes though...

Here is a link to the first version of the Castboolits Ingot molds like the Redneck molds already linked to.

Here is a link that started the whole Castboolits Ingot mold.

You will note that these ingots weight approx. 2.5 # each and where designed to fit in a SFRB efficiently.
