  1. I was able to get lead containers for radio active medicine through a hospital contact for free as well as a 4X8 sheet of drywall covered with lead.
  2. I talked with the Living Rubber people this morning. The guy said that it is in production over seas and we should be able to ge all we want before October.
  3. I use powder paint and then enamel for the eyes. The eyes don't stay on as good as I would like. SUGGESTIONS PLEASE.
  4. Trollfish, That was very good advise. I just melted the babbitt down and poured 5 dozen spoons. Does babbitt tarnish like lead???
  5. Trollfish, Thanks for the tip. I have a fish cooker, a castiron pot and a ladel. I am getting ready to try it this afternoon.
  6. I am using a production pot. I have it on the highest setting. I have had it heating for over 2 hours and it still won't pour.
  7. I received 8 lbs of Babbit as a gift and am trying to make spoons. I can get plumber's and printer's lead to pour but not babbit. What can I do????
  8. Could you be a little more specific about Component Systems. I would like to know more about the eye machine.
