Casting Cleanup: How to Make Your Own Ammunition

Hi! This is John. Closing casting can be as safe and as fun as you make it. Taking the general safety precautions of wearing eyeglasses, safety glasses, and a covering here to prevent any fumes being breathed. Also, when you’re getting ready to put your equipment away, any lead that’s lying around loose, try to get this up. You don’t want to have children or animals or anybody exposed to lead unnecessarily. Just keep this in an area where people will not be going to eat or anything like that. Preferably, a separate area from where you do your reloading anytime when you’re working on your weapons. Doing all this, you can cast bullets for years ahead and have a lot of fun doing it. One thing that you need to do when you are getting ready to finish, you can leave some lead alloy in the pot, whatever you cannot get out of there after you have been doing your casting, that can stay in there to seal the bottom of the pot. You need to put your furnace, your mold, your ladle, and all your other tools away. Make sure that they’re kept in an area where they’re dry and not going to be exposed to rust at all.
