I might do that! I just enjoy taking something with no real use and getting it one step closer to a product The only real issue is lead is so soft, I wouldn't be able to make anything out of it if I ever got good at making molds and things.

the good thing is, if you ever run out, just take a flat tip screw driver and walk thru a walmart parking lot, youll find plenty.

As a bonus you might be able to collect some of the bullets that missed you.

Lead is poisonous! In fact it targets the brain and actually affect cognitive reasoning. Better stay away from it.

Made a deal with a friend of mine who owns a body shop and owes me. I'll be dropping the Ex off a few weeks from now to have some paint work done. It won't be everyone's cup of tea but i think i'll be happy with the finished product.
