I started out with a cheap pot to smelt in. (thrift store)
#20 Lee bottom pour pot
2 lee molds tumble lube kind
push through sizing die for each bullet
turkey fryer for smelting.
some cheap ladles for use while smelting.

I think that is about it. Those two cavity molds from lee do not require a lot of pre heating.

I also bought the Lyman casting hand book. The hand book along with some quality time over at the castboolits forum helped my out quit a bit.
