nice stuff

What kind of setup do you have to melt and pour the lead?

I melt outside using;
 
- An old Coleman 2 burner propane stove.
- The pot is a 3 quart SS -mixing bowl
- Pour with a small SS pancake ladel (also used for skimming)
- Molds are held to a steel rolling table with 2 clamp on bench vises
- Lead is from my old stained glass business

Complete and utter failure!        Although from the quality control aspect, it's probably better. 

In all seriousness, nice work there! 

Apparently, all of you viewer's missed the chrome flask left of center.

Gotta luv Hornitos!

Definitely missed it.  The reflection off the flask had me originally thinking it was some sort of plastic container with something inside of it.  Either way, nice work.

Yeah, but how big was the beer?   Awesome job.
