Went out on a date with my beautiful bride tonight and went antique shopping. I found a bunch of pewter pieces for WAY too much money.
The last place we went was the same place I found a 94 Winchester receiver for $19 at.
I found these two candle sticks. They are approx 3/4 lb each and cost $5 for both.
They are not marked pewter, but they bend and dent easily and they make a dull thud sound.
So I either got a great deal on pewter, or I just paid $2.50 a lb for lead candle sticks!
I think I will melt them and cast a couple of boolits and see what they weigh compared to lead.
My wife didn't even blink an eye when I told her I was going to melt them.
Such a great wife I have.
