    WTS--Lead/Linotype/Pewter For Sale, FTF in Wisconsin

    Hello all, I’m in NE Wisconsin (54130 between Green Bay and Appleton), and would like to downsize my stock of lead. Next spring I might be moving into a smaller place, and possibly getting out of the casting hobby. I’ve sold/shipped Linotype on here before, but for this sale I’d like to start by only doing Face To Face sales if there’s interest. Please don’t ask me to ship anything at this time.

    1,000 lbs - Pure Lead (work bought from foundry; I bought scraps, small pcs) $1.00/lb
    450 lbs - Range Lead (I melted this into 1lb, and .5lb ingots) $1.00/lb
    300 lbs - raw Stick-On wheel weights $0.90/lb
    SOLD : 400 lbs - raw Clip-On wheel weights (all lead; I sorted) $0.90/lb
    100 lbs - raw Linotype spacers $1.75/lb
    600 lbs - raw Linotype (no/not many spacers) $2.00/lb
    100 lbs - Pewter from thrift stores, but most is from foundry (I bought our CNC & lathe trimmings at work). I think people on here get more than this, but how about $7.00/lb

    300 pound minimum purchase (this allows no more than 10 buyers, to stay within S&S rules)

    Any interest? Let me know. Post here or PM, I’m good with either. Thanks much! -Brad

    Pure lead = 99.50 - 99.95% lead per vendor.
    Pewter = 92% Tin, 7% Antimony, 1% copper per vendor.

    Hey Webley, if interested I can pack up 300 or so pounds and meet you somewhere in the middle if you’d like. -Brad

    FYI, I also visit Sheboygan roughly every other weekend if anyone wants to meet there, holler. -Brad

    Bump and updated Sold item. Not that I’ve been asked, but I just want to mention that I didn’t buy lead from work just to sell it. I’ve been buying it over the past 9 years and using it while also using my Lino, COWW and Pewter. I’m now just downsizing.

    The pure lead, per our vendor, is 99.50 - 99.95% lead.

    The pewter (stuff from work, not thrift store items), per our vendor, is 92% tin, 7% antimony and 1% copper.

    I’ll try to attach a pic of the pure lead scrap pieces. They’re pretty clean, but you maybe would still want to make bricks out of them; up to you.

    Thanks. -Brad
