no pics, but I use a brick chimney in our fire pit, and a small cast iron "witch's cauldron" (about 1.5 gallon). Took a cast cleanout plug, and threaded a rod into it, and cut a small notch to control pouring. It hold's about a pound and a half of lead. I use that for pouring into the mould.
Have an old small wire strainer I use to skim the top.
I built a ingot mould out of angle iron, with the edges cut at a slight taper so the ingots drop out, and welded to side plates. Using the density of lead, I cut them at length to drop a 1 pound ingot, and it can do three at a time.
Works good to sit around with folks, and share a couple hopps flavored kool-aids while making ingots.
Total cost - $0 pretty much, except for replacing the wife's strainer.
