I came along this alloy at my scrap yard. The owner said it was some kind of printing lead, before I said anything. Some pieces are clearly Linotype. However there is a lot of this ribbon type lead (Middle Picture). It's very shiny, breaks when bent, and melts just like lead, but is harder. It's in lots of small pieces. There are a bunch of these cubes also, some with letter or designs, some not. I got 64 lbs of it for $32. There's still a good 50+ lbs there along with what looks like a large unused spool of the ribbon, probably 30 lb. What do you guys think? Do I need to go back tomorrow for the rest?
