I guess when it rains, it pours. After my 250lbs of body solder, my brother and I stumbled upon about 200lbs of old lead drag hooks. It looks like each one has about an ounce or two of lead melted around it. Cost: $0.

The next one has us stumped. A friend has about 700lbs of what he is pretty sure are lead containers which were used for holding radon test devices. He said we can have 'em if we get them out of the way. I assume these are pretty much pure lead, but is there anything beyond that I need to be concerned about or aware of?

Check with Muddy Creek Sam in the Vendor/Sponsor section, he sells x-ray lead cores. They seem to be approximately like wheelweight.
