Try visiting your local roofer\/plumber or scrap dealer. Lead is worth around a $1 or $2 per kilo. Another excellent source is to use discarded wheel weights from your local tyre shop. These weights have a hardener added to them \u0026amp; work superbly as sinker and jig material. Although less durable for jigs, pure lead does work very well for us, so don't be put off using it!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMelting Your Lead\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe secret to making sinkers \u0026amp; jigs in volume is to have a large amount of lead in a molten state. To achieve this use a Mansfield Melting Pot which is curved inside to allow a ladle to scoop lead easily. Although not as effective, a cast iron pot will do at a pinch. Use a gas ring or BBQ to melt the lead. Ensure that you use adequate ventilation when melting lead as the fumes are toxic. A common mistake is not to melt your lead to a \"bronze\" colour which is substantially hotter than a liquid state. DO NOT under any circumstances allow moisture or water to get in contact with molten lead; it splatters dangerously!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003ePouring the Lead into your Mould\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScrape off any impurities from your lead by simply scooping off the top layer of \"rubbish\" that forms once your lead has melted. Heat up your mould before pouring the molten lead into the mould. You may be using a hinged mould which can be clamped together using a D clamp. Use a ladle to pour the molten lead into your mould. Open mould once the lead has cooled sufficiently (this only takes a few seconds). Once the sinkers are completely cool, then remove them from the moulds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"16oz-20oz-30oz-pro-hunter-lead-sinker-mould","title":"16oz, 20oz, 30oz Pro Hunter Lead Sinker Mould","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePro Hunter snapper giant reef sinker moulds, 3 sizes to suit your fishing styles- sizes include 16oz, 20oz and 30oz\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e16oz, 20oz, 30oz Pro Hunter Ball Sinker Mould Combo \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaking your own sinkers is cost-efficient and great fun.
