A couple of weeks ago, a member was looking for a shotmaker. Trapshooter.com has a thread near the top with videos of what I think is the fellow's adaptation of the Better Shotmaker which, I think, is easier and simpler than the Littleton.
It's a long thread with a lot of videos and the first ones aren't real clear. He drops his shot in transmission fluid, and IIRC make 100 lbs in a relatively short time (2 or so hours?).
Looks a whole lot simpler that getting that perfect cast boolit and I think I am gonna try this when I finally retire (which would be 66 days if I was counting).
Components have gone through the roof and, IMO, it is just a matter of time before the Walmart bargain shells are gone.
Now if we can figure out how to make primers....
