Dang, me too and I'm a early 09 model!

I'm right there with ya, thread was some 7 years old when I joined too…. One never knows what may come back to life around here.

...maybe the ground's gone sour.

Holy necro-thread Batman. That's a solid 15 years old thread that's been revived. Me thinks this is a NWFA record!

FWIW, shipyards had excess lead for years and years. Several of the radiation shielding companies were buying it by the truckload for awhile. Lancs was able to get it for pennies on the pound when disposal costs were higher than the value on the market.

 

[Mikej]

So how much a pound does it come out to be?
Then is it small enough for the average guy to handle?

Indeed! And I want to know how a seasoned member gets to the point of finding such a thread? and then posting on it? I don't heap scorn on the members that delve into the long past. I do find it interesting though.

No wonder I didn't recognize any of the screen names the first half of this thread. Some of them are probably dead by now.

Lead poisoning?

I think they just consider it old age at this point
