I didn't put this in the I want to by section. Because I would like to get it from someone I at least think I know.
If I put 1 pound of tin in with 50 pounds of metal that should be 2% right ? and enough to help my fill out.
I hate like heck always coming up with these little deals, but I have to do the best I can.
If someone has a pound of pure tin please PM me and let me know how much
they need to get for it, and thanks men for putting up with me and such a small amount of metal.
I should be able to swing at least $15.00 from this months check.
Please don't offer any for free I want to pay for it.

Gray Wolf. ZBench has a group buy going for Tin in the GB section and you can get a pund of tin from Rotometals for $12.99 plus shipping.

You need to put 1 pound of tin in with 49 pounds of lead to be at 2%.

Look at the local hardware store for lead free solder. You might come out ahead after shipping....

I could send you a pound of 95/5 solder for $10 shipped. Let me know if you are interested. This WAS the rosin flux core but I melted it down into small ingots.

If pewter will do you, (97% tin, approx. 2% copper, and 1% antimony) , give or take. I will ship you a pound of it at no charge. I will pay the shipping also.

Yes Sir.
If you will check on some of the posts started about pewter, you see more information about it.
