trapper444, I am sorry to hear of your fire. Glad to hear that you and your son will recover.

As I have said many times, "Things can be replaced, people can't."

Casting balls is easy to do out of a small steel or cast iron pot and a yard sale camp stove. You can be back in the game for considerably less than the cost of an electric furnace.

trapper444 so very sorry to here of the fire and injury to your son. No doubt you have way more pressing issues than casting some bullets, like your home, your work area and everything reloading.

Wishing you all my best and will look forward to your getting back in the game.

Welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear of your loss but I’m glad you and your son made it out. I lost everything in a fire about 9 years ago. God always sees us through.
