It says that if you leave lead in the pot it will likely drip during heat-up, so an ingot mold should be placed under the spout. For extra purification, stir in a second tea light candle after using the spoon to skim off and discard the dross produced by the first candle. Lead does not adhere well to other metals, so you’ll have no problem opening the mold and removing the lead.
Oh so much easier to clean and keep running, and here after just shy of a ton of lead through i have yet to catch a drip!With a melting point of only 621 °F (327 °C), you can easily melt lead yourself and cast it into all kinds of shapes.

Most of the issues with lead were with lead compounds, such as lead carbonate used in lead based paint, and lead acetate.

When we were kids dad taught us how to make a plaster fishing sinker mold using the lost wax process. From having thrown away 2 Lee bottom pour pots, I would say the pot will be likely to drip at any time, regardless of whether you leave lead in when you are done casting or not. My main use is to make fishing weights and I have a selection of Do-It moulds I imported from the states. I think that will be my second choice if I don't get the Lees, it seems handy to not melt the lead with a external device from the pot.Everything else mentioned I have done with mine and would encourage you to do the same if you get one. I haven't gotten into casting my own yet, but I've been collecting parts and pieces, especially lead. The melting point of lead is 621 °F (327 °C), so you’ll need a powerful yet safe heat source to do the job. So since wheel weights seem to be such a common form of lead for people, whats the best way to clean them up? I'm looking at a lee precision lead pot style they're spendy though so I would like some opinions on it before I drop any dough, something that pours from the top and electric so I don't have to use propane.
