GETJIGY#1 Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 hey guys, my question is that whenever you pour the lead into the mold, how come it's not smooth and nice lookin. around the jig head, its all jagedy and the barbes on the coller, you can barly tell its there. > Quote
harshman Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 Your lead might not be hot enough to fill the mold properly. Also have you smoked the mold this helps the lead distribute evenly in the mold . I've always found though that most incomplete pours are temp related. Harshman Quote

And you may also need to flux the lead. Quote
