Running a stained glass studio, I have A LOT of lead scrap. (scrap H-came from constructing leaded windows/panels) All little pieces, but it adds up quickly, and it occurred to me the other day someone might be able to use it. Anyone interested? |

Is it purelead or an alloy? I cast bullets for blackpowder and could always use lead… James |

you mean you don't use the bits to solder the H rail connections? The Glaser who showed me would hammer the bits out into wire and use them as solder. |

JGibbons – Pure lead, I think. PM me and I'll send a box your way. Ron – erm… no. Solder is a lead/tin alloy. The materials can't have the same melting temp. |

Dentatus, where are you located? Depending on cost to ship/pickup I may be interested. Biff |
