Not a Home Run, but a good start all the same.

Today I got up at 6:30am with the intention of pouring some LEAD, and after about an hour of stumbling around I finally got several good pours.  The mold I'm using today is a Storm Sinker mold that makes 2,3,4oz sinkers.  The lead supply consist of old bank sinkers and 5lb of lead which i believe came out of a bathroom.  Anyway I made about a dozen of the 3,4oz and 8 of the 2oz.  With the rest of the lead I pour it in muffin tins...  Good Start!

  2. These are called Storm Sinkers, and they seem to hold better and some believe them make less of a splash when the hit the water..
