River jigin Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Just wondering what I could use inplace of a ingot mold because I forgot to but one and it isnt worth it to place a order for something that is 13 bucks and pay the shipping for it.

WidowMaker Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 I use a shallow pan that is square shaped and pour the lead in thin layers. The lead cools quickly and stacks flat. When i get ready to use it i can fold it up and put in in the pot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donkjc2 Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 I use a muffin pan that is shaped like an ear of corn. Makes a nice looking ingot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haybay larry Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 Guys, I prefer to use a plumbers ladel. It creates ingots [round] that are about 3-4 lbs with lead in them. I use this version because i melt down larger amounts of lead from old telephone line sleeves. A torch works well for these. One of the sleeves are about 25 lbs....Larry:nuhuh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
