Does anyone know of a supply of lead shot no more than, say, 3/32"
diameter pse?
Sounds a little odd, but I want to fill old "sparklets" type bulbs
with lead to make weights for driving clocks.
A fishing tackle shop was suggested, but when I called at one I was
told that lead is banned for angling, and their only "shot" was much
too big to fit into the hole in the bulb.
Solder would be a possibility, but a large proportion of it would be
tin.
