Good luck. Took me a few attempts to get the knack of pouring jigs, but you'll get the hang of it real quick.
Definitely heat the mold with a torch before your first pour, especially in the area right where the lead enters the mold. On the first couple of pours, I'll leave the lead inside the mold for 5-7 minutes to heat it up. It made the rest of the pours a lot easier for me.
What are you using as a heating element?
