Perfect for small quantities. Shape and design works well with electric coil heating element (e.g. hot plate). The bail, spout and tab makes pouring directly from the pot very easy when using pliers or tongs.

very utilitarian, which is exactly its best selling feature. Now, if I could just find its "big brother", it would totally make my day-week-year. I'm a commercial fisherman who makes his own weights. A while ago I had my lead smelting apparatus "appropriated". This will allow me to make my 1 to 3 lb wgts. but I will eventually need to pour up to a 50 lb ball weight for my salmon trolling. I've got my molds and burners but still need an appropriate sized smelting pot.

For the person who makes his own weights and jigs it will work good. I use it on my Coleman cook stove to melt the lead. The pot has a lip on the back where you can clamp on your vise grips to pick up the pot and pour the lead directly into your mould.

Works fine. Costs more than it should, but was the best price I could find. Cost is the only con. For the same price you can get a small cast iron Dutch oven at a sporting goods store, and that would have a lid.

Well made. With proper use, it should last a lifetime; however, (here it comes) this LITTLE MINIATURE POT will only hold a few ounzes -- maybe as much as a pound of lead, no more. Fine if you are going to cast a few sinkers or mini balls but no good for casting anything of any size. The listing photos have no scale. Make sure this pot is right for your needs. I bet I find something to use it for. Afterall, it's a cool pot.
