To melt lead I use an old coffee can with the top bent into a spout and a coleman stove. I do it outside where the better half will not complain (much).. I use a pair of vice grips (and gloves) to handle the can.

I have the lead and a torch that puts out enough heat to melt the lead but I don't have a ladle nor a mold. I prefer not to spend much (if any) money for these items as it will be a one time project. Does anyone know what I can use to melt lead in and how to construct a one time mold (cheaply)? Robert Samuels ...............
