Good deal lead for cans that most people throw away!

I got some cans, scrap brass (casings and spent primers), and wheel weight clips I've been saving to do the same thing. I'm gonna do the same thing. I also found 2 really old sewing machines in the woods when I was hunting. I tossed em in the back of the truck. Those suckers were heavy and they appear to be steal (all rusted). Maybe I'll get a couple pounds of WW for them and they are no longer in the woods.

My local recycler charged me $0.18/lb for wheel weights and $0.23/lb for pure lead last week. Bought a total of 400 lbs.
Anybody find a deal on Ben-Gay for my aching back?

The cans are worth about .25 lb around here down from over .50 this spring.

Every spring I manage to fill a couple of 30 gal garbage cans with (crushed) cans picked up along the road going back and forth turkey hunting.

Note: some guys are pretty consistent about how long it takes them to down a beer between the bar and home.
