Operating instructions for the portable digital thermometer (Click to download PDF).

As you mix white metals together, the melting temperatures changes. Take lead f.ex. melts at 328c but mix it with 10% tin and the melting temperature reduces to 230c.  Bismuth is another metal which has a similar effect on lead. We would not recommend you to mix any other metal than above as they can have strange effects on the alloy.
It is important to not overheat the metal as this will wear out the moulds faster and can cause surface holes.
