Nah wasn't missing the point, I just don't want any fucking creative people/ hobbyist reading that they can go to home depot and make a smelter in their back yard by just by staking some cinder blocks and a rosebud torch on butane. To many folks, take what they read as flat out gospel these days and don't do the due diligance to look further.
The pan it's self though it's garbage. The value of it vs the risk to personal health. Nah. Realy at end of the day what do you get after all that work to clean it a piece of cast iron that fries food the same as another cast iron? And a cool story about how you had to clean the lead of that pan before it was "safe to eat" lol
