Bulk Lead?

[Jayhad]

I am using 0.30 lead for a pattern that I am tying tonnes of, and I am ripping through the little spools that it comes on. I can't imagine commercial tiers using those little spools. Is there some where I can buy a larger quantity?

Go to Walmart!

jayhad,

 

Got several spools extra of various sizes from 0.015">0.035".

 

Wanta trade something and no I'm not interested in plastic rods. I'm looking for a real fishing vest - not the "packie" things sold today.

 

 

Or you could buy it here:

Don, I will check for you, I think I have a used once vest that I bought in 93, I haven't bought a vest since as I don't use them. If not I can probably get this stuff from one of my works electical components suppliers.... never thought of it for fuses

jayhad,

 

You might find someone who still has lead fuse wire. It was commonly used for the fuses in voltage regulators years ago. The high tech solid state voltage regulators didn't use it. If they failed, it was off to the land fill.

I did get some from another supplier that wasn't Buss. I'd suspect that it might have been Chinese in origin.

 

And the offer still stands.

 

Looking for vests. Can't find anything worth a crap in the stores today.

I think that Fish Tales has larger spools of lead. They are about 4" high and as big around as a beer can. I dont know if the price is right. but easy to source.
