First Ingots

[Rockchucker]

I hope these pictures uploaded ok, This was my first pour cleanning up a dirty 5 gallon bucket of wheel weights. Had a blast making these ingots. They are for use at a later date. Still gotta slug my barrel and order some molds.

[smilie=w:It looks like you did a great job.
But let me worn you once you get
the bug there is no stoping it.
The next thing we will be seeing is
a dark figure in the mall parking lot
with plyers and a bucket.

Thats funny:lovebooli, I can see myself sitting there. While I was making ingots yesterday I was remembering my dad sitting around a gas cooker making lead sinkers, some I still use to this day and that was 30 years ago.

I don't know how much these ingots weight each, I used the small muffin pans and guessing a little over a pound. I do know that a 5 gallon bucket is more than I want to lift, maybe around 200 lbs.
