    I firmly believe that you should only get treated by how you act, not by who or what you are!!

    I cast ingots at my club. If I had a dollar for every time somebody said, “Too bad that’s not really gold”, I could buy the real thing!

    ETA: It occurs to me that if I did have real Redneck Gold bars, I could paint them silver and hide them in my casting alloy! Of course if I kicked the bucket untimely, some lucky caster might wonder why that bar of 95-3-2 just won’t melt.

    Gold painted lead strikes me as more convincing (so long as some wise guy doesn’t test the density).

    dondiego,if it were really gold, there would be $32 million in my shop! But, alas, just ww lead.
    It was a joke between me and my fellow casting partner! I HAD to do it! Gave him one to put on his bench to look at!
    Just having Fun!
