Here's the molds and the ones I cast with Lead. They range from 12 oz for the small bulb, 2 lbs for the large bulb, 3 lbs for the small sphere, and 3 lbs 12 oz. for the large sphere. The spheres were the only ones that wanted to leak out the vent holes. The small one I had to stop pouring so it could seal and then finish pouring. Caused a small ring around the globe.
Just fun to melt something. :)

Chuck, what would you like? A block of bronze or a round rod. Let me know what size if you have a project in mind.

Doesn't matter. No project, just something to play with.
