Hi - Well Bullshop Junior is freezing his butt off North of me we got snow, over a foot, then rain for 48 hours! Seems to have tapered off a bit with just a skiff of snow last night. More snow in the forecast then rain!
That casting set up has turned into everything I thought it would be. Regardless of what pot you use as your main pot, having the 2nd pot above the first really speeds up the casting process. I usually start with both pots full and melted. I accumulate sprue etc from casting and when the RCBS is down about half I empty the Lee into it, add all my sprue into the Lee and continue to cast adding sprue to the upper pot as I go. I should mention I add a lb or two of fresh ingots into the top pot as well. I flux of course the upper pot just before emptying it and flux the bottom pot every other fill up.
If you have a 20lb main pot and can find a used 10# pot this kind of set up sure works.
Well Dave sorry to hear about the drought conditions especially given you are going into your summer down there. We are expecting a wet warm winter given it is supposed to be an El Nino year.
Take Care
Bob
