Hot Dog! I'm gettin' ready to render my lead for the first time. A neighbor gave me a propane bottle which I cut and made into a rendering pot today. So I've got everything I need to start rendering all this lead I've accumulated. Only thing is we are experiencing a dangerous heat wave in my area right now. Don't think I want to stand over a large pot of molten lead after all the horror stories I've read on the forum. But at least I've got everything necessary to do the job. Bought 3 muffin pans that have 12 pockets and 5 mini-loaf pans that have 12, so I've got the ingot thing taken care of, I think. Going to use the muffin pans for pure lead and the mini-loaf for wheel weights to keep them separated. Just wish I had some other kind of ingot mold for my mixed lead. All I have is one Lyman ingot mold that makes 4 ingots at a time. Need about 10 or those, but $$ prohibits right now. Probably should make some of those "v" channel ingot molds I've seen here on the site.........only I have to pay someone to weld and welders like to make big bucks. Have my skimming ladle, stainless steel mesh ladle for pulling out wheel weight clips and my pouring ladle. I have a table to set all my molds on after pouring. Bought a brand new Jet turkey fryer and now I've got my pot. Ready and rearin' to go. Hot Dog!!!
