Port a band saw works pretty good, just catch the filings.
Dead soft lead? ...cold chisel and a hammer.
Tree stump and a hand ax/hatchet.
Hello All:
Think a wood splitter would chomp these up??:lol:

If it's soft enough, I've used a small machete tapped through with a 2lb sledge, set on a large piece of wood.
Bow saws for trees work well too.
melt them in a big pot and pour useable size ingots
Sawz-All with a coarse blade works good. If you use a saw of any type, lube the blade with some bees wax.
i vote, use the wood splitter if you have one... less mess!!!!!
Hatchet and a 2lb sledge.
Blow torch and a pair of welder’s gloves
I have used an automotive air chisel. It does a real nice job.
I assume our mean a bar. Just put one end into the pot, melt what you want and use channel locks to pull out the excess.
To all my friend who offered up such good suggestions thanks much.
I will be trying the wood splitter method as soon as I can fix a flat tire on the splitter.
I'll keep you informed.
