    But be careful that it doesn't have the grey plastic pipe in the slab and walls, no asbestos in the ceiling "cottage cheese", and make sure there is no Radon gas under the slab.... and on and on and on...

    Fact is we are all going to die of something, but there is no reason to help it along. But mostly don't let our actions be the cause of harm to others, especially those that mean the most to us.

    My two bobs worth....I only started this shooting stuff a bit over 3 years ago, and started with muzzleloaders, so it wasn't long before I was melting and casting round balls. This soon led to recovering pistol range scrap and smelting it (as many know, this is a dirty job!). I do this outdoors, wear leather gloves and will often use a fan if there's no wind. I've currently done quite a few hundred kilos. Out of curiosity, a few months ago I asked my GP if I could be tested for lead levels. She thought it a bit strange, so I explained why. Result, normal blood levels.

    So I figure that as long as I keep going along as I am, I should be ok.
