This item is easy to use if you have any experience in pouring lead. Be sure to use proper safety equipment and techniques. If you have no experience please just spend the extra money and buy the lead already casted. The mould is rough, but it is very easy to release the lead and works well. The weights do not have to be beautiful to be effective. If you are like me and lose a lot of weight with students then this is definitely a cheaper alternative to purchasing weight.

OK for basics.
Used one of these originally but it developed a crack through the handle and bottom of the mould. Had to discard it.

Great Product

About Me Beginner
The mold is perfect. Preheat the mold while melting the lead (use caution and ventilation of course). We sprayed a little cooking-oil-spray into the mold and began pouring. Once we began pouring we were able to go through 100 pounds of lead truck weights in 4 hours. The mold has reference lines for different size weights. We poured 1.5, 3, and 4.5 pound weights. It all went very fast. After the "sheen" came comes off the lead (it solidified) we simply turned the mold over and the weight dropped-out If the weight wasn't perfect we remelted it. If the weight was stuck in the mold we remelted the lead in the mold and poured it back into the melt pan. This mold could make thousands of weights easily once you get into it... Of course care and safety must be taken as everything is very hot. Welding gloves and fresh-air ventilation are a must.
