Here's a pic of non-lead clip weights from a 2-1/2 bucket batch I just processed, steelies on the left and zincers on the right.

looks like you had a half gal. of lead left to melt and proses. Man you are saving time going threw the buckets. Your cutting your time in a third melting and fluxing you can get three times more buckets to work threw. The best thing the steel clips and zinc are worthless at the scrap yard. Come on Mr. scrap yard runner. I will trade you these buckets of steelies and zinces straight across for that bucket of lead over there.
