    That fella in the video must not have known you can dump the ingot molds in about a miniute and reused them...like a bullet mold...if you want a 1,000 boolits, you don't need 1,000 cavities! A nice little unit.
    Take a kid to the range, you'll both be glad you did.

    I'd surely like to see what type valve or mechanism is used.

    Correction: the video was/is the builder of the pots and he explains his demonstration in a reply to a question in the comments. He used the Lee 1 and 1/2 pound combination ingot molds. So he poured 45 pounds.
