I bought the bulk of my molds back in the 80's when they were $20-$25. I sold to a few tackle shops and I finally got to the point where I had recouped the cost of my equipment. One thing that I've been VERY lucky with is that I've NEVER had to buy lead, I've always gotten it for free.

Brons I hope that was a misprint on the cost of bottom pour melting pots, Lee pots are $50-$80 dollars depending on where you get them and I pour lots of
1/32oz jigs in many styles.
