I just finished casting some round balls for the first time. Took a while to get started because I forgot I needed to heat the mold first. Also the Lee ladle is trickier than it looks.
Stopped casting when I realized I kept getting a layer of yellow, and eventually blue mixed in.
After sorting, left with only 7 good balls, a mess of wrinkled but potentially usable ones, and a pile of rejects. One was interesting, had a rough look rather than the shiny surface of smooth lead.
Any tips to be more successful?
