What I would go to if Lead is gone for personal use

Has anyone tried Bismuth?

Bismuth by it self will be to brittle and easily broken.I know some are saying pure tin.Ive talked with some metal guys and Im being told the closest to our lead will be a 40/10/50 40 tin,10 zinc,50 bismuth.The best price Ive found so far is 13.00/per lb if you buy 250 lbs less than 250 and it is 15.00/pound.Even with this rate mixture Im told it will be around a 20 to 21 percent lighter than lead.I could live with that myself but dang that is ruff on the pocket to fill the ole pots.

I know this, I will be making some really good friends out of local machinists and CNC operators just in case.

One good thing though is it looks like the Republicans will be in control in 4 months so any ban will have to wait til they lose power again.

I will vote anyone out of office who impedes my right to the persuit of happiness.....I.e. Fishing!

Guys- EPA cannot be controlled by Congress directly. The agency reports up a line that leads to the Oval Office and the earliest we can vote for a change in that office is 2 years from now. EPA can do A LOT between now and then.
