I recently acquired 200ish pounds of Linotype. There are two 30+ pound pigs, the rest pieces of type.
I AM NOT OFFERING ANY FOR SALE HERE, JUST ASKING ADVICE. If I sell any I will post it in the proper place. If I were to cast boolits from this it would likely last me the rest of my life at the rate I shoot. Seems like a waste of good metal to use it like that.
Is this worth melting and casting ingots if I were to sell any? The pigs are too big for adding to your typical bottom pour pot, but the pieces of type seem like a perfect way to sweeten up the pot if you need more tin or hardness.
What is this stuff worth as is vs ingot form?
