I saw a Facebook post of a guy selling 80 lbs of lead. It was from a newspaper so I'm thinking, lynotype. The guy was about 25 miles from me and work about 30 miles the other direction too. Anyway I call the guy and make arrangements for a buddy to pick it up for me. Anyway I get it and I'm still thinking lynotype. Well I have another friend that works at a factory that does castings. He said he could get it analyzed for me. So I cut off a small chunk. Man the stuff is hard. Well turns out 97.77% ZINC!!! Sold it for scrap an lost a bit of money, but worse was that I didn't get any lead/Lynotype for my trouble.
