The best "sticking solder" has lead in it. Some of the plumbers i know have some of the "banned" solder to use on old pipes that are as they say beyond cleaning.

I'll take the wheel weights. Bullets or sinkers. I use both.

LMAO! i'm too lazy to take the time to cast bullets--have good source of hard cast bullets in VERY large quantities. i don't feel too bad about sacrificing a few wheel weights.
