This melting pot is a must for the serious hobby caster. The temperature is thermostatically regulated between 200-450c. An ordinary electric cooker does not go more than 320c which is barely enough. By heating the metal an extra 50-70c the metal gets much more fluid and flows into the intricate parts of the mould and you will get much better castings. It is also much more energy efficient and uses only 250w against an electric cooker 1200-2000w. It melts the alloy in less than half the time compared to a standard electric cooker. The pot is titanium plated so alloy will not stick to it.

This ladle is ideal for melting Prince August casting metals and solder. It's compatible with electric, gas, and some induction cookers due to its flat base. Not suitable for aluminum, zinc, or open fires. The handle is short, making it unsuitable for open flames.
This starter kit includes essential hobby casting accessories (except file and cutter/clipper). Add your own moulds and metal to start white-metal casting. Includes: Casting ladle, release powder, support boards for any mould, mould clamps, and a casting guide.
This melting pot is ideal for hobby casters, offering thermostatic temperature control for better fluidity and intricate castings. It's energy-efficient, using only 250w, and melts alloy faster than standard cookers. The titanium plating prevents alloy sticking.
