Welp I've researched casting for a while now and talked to a bunch of old casters and finally got all my stuff to go ahead and do it. Main problem I've been having is getting wheel weights to smelt so I resulted to craigslist. Low and behold I had a fella email me saying he has 334 lbs of ingots and an unsorted 5 gallon bucket of wheel weights he use to use to reload shotshells that he'll sell me. Got it at a pretty good price also. Pretty excited to finally be able to get started casting.
