    WTB foundry type and a little tin

    Looking for foundry type, figured I would check here before ordering from Roto Metals. Also need a little Tin.
    Have lots of pure lead if someone is interested.seeing what’s out there and weighing brining able to buy known vs unknown.

    Don't have foundry type, but do have a bunch of lino if you are interested.
    When you care enough to send the very best, send an ounce of lead.

    I have a bunch of Foundry type. Not enough lead.
    Those who choose violence as a first option are typically confronted by somebody else using violence as a last resort.

    Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a second time.

    I can get a bunch of lead at less than a dollar a pound and I just order a bunch of linotype and I got some isocores. Shipping is the problem. At best shipping is 30 cents a pound.

    That’s more foundry hardness I ain’t it?

    I dunno. Maybe 3:1 if we are swapping lino for pure?
