my first ingot!

My ingot pour was awful to say the least. My fine silver melted just fine. The pouring part is what got me. I did not have a good flow going I guess. The bottom half of the ingot turned out pretty solid, however the top basically turned into a wire and then it overflowed out the top of the mold. It was a good learning experience though. I know I can melt it all down again, so I'm not too concerned. We took some photos of my ingot experience. Here they are.
