Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
the grey kind - before 2000 - I used to sell some of my sinkers - the better ones
early 80s I melted most of my lead and made musket balls to shoot black powder
late 80s early 90s bought salt water sinker molds and turn old into new - used some - sold some
late 90s had a few yard sales and sold some again
I melted a bunch to make my own dive belt weights also
have saved most now since 2000 - most are pictured but I got containers all over with some here and there
the jars and jugs weigh about 50 lbs each -filled with fishing weights - there are like a dozen dive belt weights there too on the floor
got a lot of land scrap lead in other boxes not pictured
rectangular bin - don't know the weight - I can not move it off the floor

Might want to re-enforce those floors Casper. My wife has a fit when I leave just a couple on my desk.
 

And I thought I was bad about getting rid of my lead! :notworthy: My brass/copper bucket is getting up there too. The fishing weights and dive weights shown, amount to 131lbs. Not shown is another 25lbs of misc lead that isn't fishing related.
