I used a small 5 litre diving tank as a breathing kit so I wouldn't poison myself. After a while, the lead started to get cold on the top. I almost gave up but in desperation, I added the blowtorch to the side of the pan and it just got me enough heat. Once I had a full pan, I used an old kitchen sieve to scoop off most of the impurities on the surface. It was like pure dry soil. I also preheated the mould a bit with the blowtorch. In the bottom (blurred) picture, I have a complete pan of molten lead ready to pour. |
