In a pinch I set a pie plate with some previously used 50/50 lube, with new bullets in the holes, on top of my electric lead pot. I kept a close eye on it and it worked to perfection.

Frog, I don't remember Jim mentioning that. But you have to remember he spent his whole life watching me use the Double Boiler system. He also watched a number of shooting buddies of mine doing the same. Now we were all products of the same guy, now passed. He was not a adamant teacher but he did get his point across. Jim is now  Professor at UVA in Charllottsville V A.
And his field is Material Science. He and I have had some discussions on Lead/Tin alloys. And he did make me aware of some issues I had never thought about. I did bring it up here once but got no response or interest so let it fall by the side. Regards FITZ. OLD TUCK Hope you have had a Happy Holiday season and are looking forward to a Happy New Year. FITZ.  
I do however remember the time when he was down range Marking the Schuetzen King target when the Black bear came right out on the Range at about the 100 yd Line. that got his attention. FITZ.

Here is a picture of my Double Boiler and I once had two I gave the other to a Friend. You don't come across them all that often and I don't now recall how I came across the two.
