For jigs, especially smaller jigs, use pure lead. Check with plumbing shops in your area to see if they have any discard lead or maybe a few old 5 pound pigs of it they'd sell. Lead isn't used in building much anymore but some of the older and bigger shops had tons of it on hand and still may.

Yes, Bubba is great to deal with. For lead you can check your scrap yards. They have bins filled with this stuff. Mine lets me pick it. I like thin sheets of pure lead. It's very easy to work with.

Believe it or not, roofers are the trade to get it from... it is still in use for what they do in the construction industry, and it is very good quality lead.

If you can't get it free, go to Roto-metals.com     They will have anything you can possibly want. I would use 99% pure lead if you are starting out. However this lead is very soft.
