redear - I take a couple of old cookie sheets and I have a big piece of block wood. I take a hacksaw and cut some lines about a 1/4" and then put the lead block on top of it and hit it with the torch on the cut. Drip the lead onto the pan, When that chunk falls off it should be hot enough to torch in half. The move the block of lead up and do it again. Back with my old LEE pots I'd just put these chuncks in and clean the all of it and then put it into rounds or ingots that would fit my pot. Those pots lasted a long time even cleaning lead. Of course I cleaned the pots out after every use!!
I had bought a cast iron pan and an old corn bread pan, figuring on using the extra propane tank from the grill hooked up to a stand and found the wife gave it to her sister!!! So I may be back cleaning with the bottom pour or going out and buying a new one.
You're going to be surprised when you start using that bottom pour how fast those jigs and going to get done. Even with the Doit molds I pour 3-4 different molds and as two get filled the others get emptied out and new hooks and repoured. then on to the other ones and same thing. The jigs pour up quick!!!!!!!!
As far as any treatment for this illness??? NO NO NO!!!!!!!LOL you're stuck with it buddy!!!!!!!
