Back when lead got aroun $1.10 per pound scrappers were paying $0.85
It got down to about $0.90 and I had to pay $0.80 for a barrel of WWs that turned out to have 480 pounds linotype in it with my 600 pounds of WWs.
Today lead is down to $0.71 and may drop more.
If it turns out that scrap lead can be bought under sixty cents per pound , I'm going to try to get about a ton of it.
I just wonder ,... what if it goes down to $0.50 per poung? Can we buy scrap fot $0.40 maybe?
