Not enough heat, to much heat soft lead, shot falling to far, not far enough. and so
on. The ladle tips back so you can shut down if needed. the red can holds the coolant (antifreeze). The green can is about 1/2 full of coolant and pumps it back to the top container to keep the antifreeze from getting to hot. I found that if you rinse your shot at about every 25 lbs it takes
alot less time to clean for some reason. I made a drying screen from window screen and hardware cloth. I made a little cement mixer from the 12 motor that went to my old 10' satelite
dish and a 1 1/2 gallon bucket and some old casters to coat the shot with. (Its been a long winter) less than a teaspoon per 25 lbs. Now to the pics. I have an old Sony
camera that uses floppy disc but even with a new batt. it says batt low so these are
the only pics if I can get them loaded today. The one pic is of the vibrator its an old
fan motor with a nut off center on it.
