I found a trove of dead soft lead last year in a garage right under my nose. I was doing something for my 94 year old friend and I spied a dusty stack of lead bricks behind some junk in a corner. I asked what they were for, he said "I dunno. I got 'em maybe 50 years ago when I witnessed an X-Ray lab being dismantled. Why, do you want 'em? Take 'em." I still gotta muster up the moxie to go and haul them out - eight bricks 5"x14"x3" thick. They gotta weigh around 60 pounds each.
