Yes. Wash your hands after handling stuff containing lead. Even if it is just electrical solder, and certainly pure lead sheet metal.

Wazoooooo
 

I used some sheet lead to flash a river rock chimney going through a hexagonal shingle roof. I cut a v into the mortar joints between the rock and inserted the lead, packed in a bit of mortar to seal it up, then formed it over the stone and soldered the joints. Looked good and still works!!

It could also be used for counterflashing brick chimneys, but there might be a bit of a problem with electrolysis, using galvanized or copper step flashing.

I also used the lead sheeting to line my patent leather G string, so when i am pole dancing, my package is protected from x ray glasses. I have a patent on this but it doesn't seem to be going anywhere - WTF

Also lined the interior of my cowboy hats with lead to protect against the commie thought police - This is working really really well.

Melt it down and you can make fishing weights. This time last year there was a major shortage, you could have made good money off that sheet!

All joking aside - as most of us don't play with radiation-generators (and if we do legally we already have better stuff because raw Pb brings lots of rules/tears) - working it into some kind of a composite sound dampener would be brilliant.

Otherwise, ankle weights for those "swim with the mob" workouts or bullets.

I didn't know this :eek: About five years ago I got a gunshot wound to the face from a .38 Special lead bullet. Maybe that explains why I'm a little odd. I'll have to google lead poisoning symptoms.

Does it work better than aluminum foil ?

I've eaten. But suddenly I'm hungry again!

As Mjohnson said, Bond it into layers of composite and make yourself a pair of high end speaker cabinets. I have a pair that use lead in the material that make up the cab, the newer ones had to stop using lead for some reason.

That's HazMat stuff in Cali and it gets disposed of in other states like Utah

Speaking of Heavy as hell.....

My solid lead pig - weighs 150-200lbs and must be moved with a hand truck:

I've heard it makes fine paint additive.

In the UK, low-lifes steal it from the roofs of old buildings (often churches, schools, etc...) to sell for scrap. Then it rains (so weird in the UK, right?) and the interiors of the buildings end up trashed.

Maybe you could use it to make clown-face makeup?

Umm, stained glass framing I guess.

Beautiful pig - and all the more because lead ingots have been called "pigs" for like most of ever. I guess when you poured a melt of Pb into the moulds each of the trenches/ingots were like pigs attached to the sow...

Now I want a lead pig, a pretty one like yours.

I have a 200# cement pig. I would prefer a lead one...

Keyless entry cars can be easily unlocked and stolen with a relay (basically any key where you don't have to press a button to unlock/start. If you keep your keys by your door, they can just step up to your door, hop in your unlocked car, start it and drive away

I had some left over lead and lined my keybox, took about 1/2 hour, the side cuts were the only skilled part, the rest just unfolds. And then screwed 2 pieces on the top

I highly recommend
