Sorted my wheel weights today and out of the 70 lbs I had about 1/2 lb ZN, 3 lbs FE, and the rest were lead! I even found about 3 lbs of SOWW that are so soft they must be pure lead. I will smelt those down with the 60 lbs of sheet lead that I acquired lately. I think I am lucky to find so few WW that are not lead. What do you think?

Lucky dog. I mostly come out 50/50 lead to junk.

It's been so long sense I have smelted any ww, I did not realize they were making them outta zinc!

I am gonna hafta go back through the gift bucket again to check for zinc :)
I did notice that some of them looked a little funny :)
