Side burner for a propane grill works GREAT. So does a burner for an outdoor fryer. I got one from Bass Pro for $29. Gave the pot to my wife. Also got a small cast iron pouring pot, and an assortment of DoIt! molds.

I get my lead from old lead shower pans. SILKY SMOOTH! The best anyone I know has ever seen. Has some kind of additive that is better than even pure lead. If you know a contractor, tell him to NEVER throw another away!

Flashing may be similar, but I don't know.

I set the burner up outside on my patio, and have a plywood table to pour on. Very fast and easy. I will probably never buy a jig again. Powder paint is easy, too, if you care.

The more I jig, the less I think paint matters. I think I actually do better with plain lead heads.

Don't overheat your lead, and don't sniff it.

Stay safe, and enjoy!

Good fishing to you!
