I use a large cast iron skillet over a coleman stove. For the molds I buy them at a large sporting goods store to make the specific shapes I normally use. Mostly egg weights with a hole down the middle so the line slides through. I find the half to three quarter oz. weights the right size for lake fishing and larger sizes for the bay.
Omfgg. Was doing this 20+ years ago. From off cuts of lead flashing, when I was a roofer. We would twist a peace of wire, & place it in the mold first.
legs apart, molten lead near junk, what could possibly be the danger ...lolol 🤙 thanks for the vid.. please stay safe homie u seem cool as hell... hate to see u get messed up there... 😉🤙
Yikes... If it hasn't been said already, dumping a bucket of wheel weights into molten lead... Wow. Imagine having a few drops of water in that bucket of weights... Wow.
I've never used that before. I stick with the non-stick cooking spray and buy it cheap from the Dollar General store. I have been using it forever, you don't have to worry about anymore chemicals fumes, and it's only about $3.00. You can also use it to spray on the pull pins, that are used for your egg sinker and other molds. This makes removing the pins really easy.
@@daveberry2177 Some people just don't care about safety, how much lead was spilled when they dumped a bucket of weights in there? And how many weights fell into the fire? And they didn't even make sure that the bucket was perfectly dry. I get it, they don't care about safety, but don't waste all that lead
I know nothing about respirator mask, but i want to make 5 and 10 pound offshore fishing lead weights in the future. I like what i see here, but i want to do it safely. What respirator mask would you recommend for sure fire safety?
