I went by my local friendly radiator shop and for 20.00, I got 3 - 6 gallon buckets of solder drippings. The owner told me that they ONLY use 40 - 60 solder. So far i have rendered around 1/4 of a bucket and have around 25 pounds of solder bars. I will not need that much and am thinking of selling / trading some. Question is, if I render and attempt to clean as much of the gunk out as i can (and boy it's a lot), what is a fair asking trade / price? Would it be appropriate to ask for 4 pounds lead or 3 pounds WW for each pound of solder? I am not looking to make any money on this, just help out a brother (yall), and further my casting career. Am considering trading for anything.... Loaders, molds, brass, etc., but I want to be honest and fair. This may get posted later this week.
I know what Rotometals is getting, but this is not Rotometals quality. Still good stuff, though.
