ROWINGADUBAY Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 I used to work in a foundry and some guys I worked with said they used it to make light jigs although I have never seen it done for myself If you go to lee's website ther is a list of material they do and don't cover under there warranty I do know you can use tin in a lee pot and that should work great for what your doing good luck And I hope this helped George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
