Yay or nay?
Would be under a raised house, so not exposed to rain, but everything else.
Reyna set me up a pouring area.

Thx

With the humidity, i'd be afraid of rust & oxidation...... or are they all aluminum?

I keep some cast iron for camping outside (in shed) and no rust on them so far as long as i keep a heavy coat of Pam non-stick on them.

If you just use the area to pour & let everything cool down & store inside then Yeah.

Otherwise, Nay

I inherited a Lee pot & a couple mold that sat outside next to a shed under the overhang. Rust & oxidized. But on the bright side, molds cleaned up fairly easy & the pot's used for melting down tire weights and other dirty lead, so for my favorite price, free, I'm happy.
