I am new to the forum and to bullet casting. I have started collecting WWs and other lead scraps from a recycling yard. I have large pieces of lead pipe, and pipe seals, as well as lead screening that looks like spaghetti.
I am reading through the forum for ideas on pots, ladels, skimmers, ingot molds, etc. I have a turkey fryer for my heat source. What I want to know is do I need a thermometer just for cleaning the lead and making ingots? I guess I will eventually need one for casting boolits but I want to get a good supply of lead/ingots before I start with the casting. Thanks for your advice.
