It still hot but should cool down soon. I cut a big hole in the bottom of my sub ( concrete part) I can stick my head in there and look around ! I'll be fitting lead in there. I also fired up that smelter and melted a bunch of lead, works really good ! I didn't do anything with the lead I just wanted to see how long it would take to melt. Next project is to make metal forms to pour the lead into, and to make my drop weight assembly. </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1473382334845_3356"> </div><div>Brian </div></div>
