posted the other day that i scored a bunch of lineotype. About 600 lbs. I got a couple hundred from my printer buddy that was in ingot form and bought a bunch from the salvage yard. Like a dummy i didnt take a tester and he had about 250 in print form that i know is lineotype and sitting right next to it was a bunch of ingots a guy made with a pan. I scratched it and it seemed hard so i bought it. ended up being wws. So i paid like 90cents a lb for 150 lb of ww. Oh well my ww stash is getting low and it wont go to waste but i sure hate knowing i paid that much for wws!!. he had 3 55 gallon drums of wws sitting there too but wouldnt budge on price so i left them.

Lloyd, maybe it'll help you feel better to hear my local scrap dealer wants $1.50 per pound for wheelweights, when he gets them.
