Thought about using the camping stove but was unsure how long one of those aerosol cannisters would last, can anyone tell me ?

That’s what I thought many years ago and would have got away with it but the budgie took offence to the fumes and died.

Now I only melt lead outside using a big flat camping stove that connects to the bulk bottles of butane. It’s stable and can be speeded up with a blow torch.

I've got a couple of drawings and ProE models if you can program from them, I tried to replicate the DCA 10oz Supazoom moulds, you can't get them now and mine are becoming worn.

I'd be interested in having a couple of moulds made, any idea of the cost?

Cheers!

I would need to see the drawings and mould to give u a rough price m8 depending on how complex and how long it will take me
 
I,ve got one of the camping stoves guys so i,ll have a look in the supermarket for some cannisters. I know its much better when its ventilated-i just get a kick out of using the oven when she,s out haha.
