I had big plans for getting all my range scrap into ingots today. But I got a late start and only managed to get through 5 buckets. I'll try to get the last 3 tomorrow. Maybe I'll even have some time to make a dent in the WW... I guess it all depends on how good my bed feels in the morning.
The proceeds for your viewing pleasure. 684 ingots onto the pile.

That's a serious pile of metal. Enough to keep you casting for atleast a couple of days?
Good Job!

I'm a bit surprised that a piece of plywood is strong enough to support all that lead.

There are a couple 2X6s and a few screws that aren't evident due to the angle.
Looks good. I picked up over 500 lbs of ww from my out west supplier. Will melt it down week after next.
i keep my smelting down to about 3 hrs at a time, or 3-4 buckets at a whack.
you gotta put all the stuff away.
and stack the ingots too.
man i need more lead, have to go hunting for lead soon.

Lord, make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hand faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those that wish to harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be “If only I had my gun”; and Lord if today is truly the day that You call me home, let me die in a pile of brass.
I am out of town, enjoy your holidays.
This smelt was primarily intended as a peace keeping mission to get the buckets of raw scrap out of Her Majesty's garage.
I'm good into my 70's at current usage so I'm not actively seeking. But if I stumble across something, I still pick it up. Doesn't matter to me how much excess stock my daughter's husband has to pack out of the place after I'm gone.
Well, the rest of the range scrap and the clip on WW are going to have to wait for another day. I did do the stick on WW this afternoon and got 64 ingots. It was only a small box, but one more bit of clutter out of her garage. When the wife is happy, everybody's happy.
Wow!!! i got a 10 quart bucket of WW the other day and thought I really scored!
I came into this world kicking, screaming, and covered in someone elses blood. I plan to go out the same way.
