Made these today quite satisfying to see a shiny lead. But for reason they started to come out dull and brittle on the pouring spout. I did think the mould was getting hot so let it cooled down but the same result View attachment 25144View attachment 25145
Looks a bit slaggy. Skim the top of the lead with a spoonAll lead was old leads except 2 x 1lb leads which did look a bit different i more concerned about the brittleness on taking weight out of mould the one on the right I could cut the waste off but the other one snapped off on taking it out of the mould View attachment 25185
Good to see you here Dusty - Welcome matey! ??Lead piping is good to keep them shiny, also having the lead melting not too hot. Thanks Chris
