I saw a young woman this past Saturday use kinetic sand to make a surface cast with pewter. My wife and I were at the National Ornamental
Metal Museum in Memphis. This young woman was practicing for a class later this month. I watched for a pretty good while and got
to thinking, I can do that! I remember Moe on the 3 Stooges telling Curley. Every time you think you weaken the nation.
I need a counterweight for a target pistol (Benelli MP90S). I have one in the pistol already and can use it to make a new weight. The cost of
these weights are cost prohibitive but making my own is the cost of the lead and sand.
I don't really want to use the kinetic sand as it has moisture in it and am concerned with the moisture in the sand and molten lead. But
the young women had no problem with the melted pewter but the lead will be quite a bit hotter.
