Has anyone here tried making your own Brit metal "rods" or "bar stock" by way of knowing how to mix the metal to pour into a mold? I think micromark.com has some stuff you make with brit metal, but I need to go back to their site to see the process. I have yet to see anything on google searches to show this.

This is the only thing I can find at micro mark

and I also found this

ok, it seems I am on a roll now - I also found this on amazon - a little melting pot

Hi, Donnie. Having the metal and melting pot is just the beginning. How do you plan making molds for the parts you plan to cast?
