Siebert Outdoors Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Which makes the better melting pot for plastics. I cant find an AL. local but I can find a stainless "butter warmer" that looks like it would work great. It has a real good spout and probably holds 3-4 cups. Whats your thoughts? Quote
jdw174 Posted November 19, 2006 Posted November 19, 2006 Actually, I prefer just small melting pots sold thru some of the plastics catalogs. They're nothing more than small aluminum pots with a pouring lip. Cost was just a couple of bucks each. Just make sure you do your melting in a well vented area. That stuff stinks when it gets going, as my wife used to remind me Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted November 19, 2006 Author Posted November 19, 2006 Thats one of the problems JDW, I found a stainless one for 12.95 that holds about 3-4 cups maybe in kmart. I looked at barlows and an alumimium one was 9.99. Well with shipping I figured the 12 was cheaper and stainless would probably be better. Do you guys know where I can find an al. for real cheap?

jdw174 Posted November 19, 2006 Posted November 19, 2006 GMAN, check the url I'm posting here. These pots may not be as big as you want, but they're CHEAP. OTOH, they might be just what you're looking for. If you're really into pouring plastics these people have a lot of molds and equipment. http://www.lurecraft.com/catalog.cfm/materials--and--tools/tools Quote
jdw174 Posted November 19, 2006 Posted November 19, 2006 Was just going through some catalogs and see that Barlows Tackle www.barlowstackle.com offers an aluminum melting pan that holds 1/2 pint of plastic. Cost is 7.95 + S&H. Stock number is 405014. Order phone 800-231-5982. My catalog is from 2005 so the stock number may have changed. Quote
