How to cast Lee slugs

Did he use a block of cheese for flux?

I couldn't watch the whole video..too painful. But I did check out the one where here puts the slugs in the hull (also painful)

He cuts the top off the hull, dumps the shot and puts the slug in the hull. He then melts the shot to make a slug.

Holy crap for the time and money spent he could buy quality ammo. He's special. f:P:2:

dont forget glueing the slug in the shell to keep it from falling out. thats my favorite part
 
Now I know where I went wrong on a few of my boolit making days...now I know if the mold doesn't fill properly I just have to fold the sprue cutter back and add a few spoon fulls of lead and just scrape the excess off the top of the mold...my rejects should drop to almost none..
