Lead Casting
Lead casting is a manufacturing process where molten lead is poured into a mold to create various shapes and objects. This technique is commonly used to produce items like fishing weights, bullets, and decorative pieces. The process begins by heating lead until it melts, then carefully pouring it into a pre-made mold, allowing it to cool and solidify.
Once the lead has cooled, the mold is removed, revealing the finished product. Lead casting is valued for its ability to create precise and detailed items, making it a popular choice in industries such as fishing and firearms. However, safety precautions are essential due to the toxic nature of lead.
