You’ll need an aluminium saucepan large enough to hold at least twice the amount of lead. Aluminium has a higher melting point than lead, so the saucepan won’t melt.
Do it outside in the garden because exposure to lead fumes can be toxic , death and all that suff !!!.

Once the lead has melted, the impurities will will float on the surface, take off with an old ladle, the lead should be bright and shiny !!.

Pour in to a mound, let it cool for a few hrs, its best to bolt to the kart with Two bolts.

easy,

Cheers
Trev
