fork repair using lead

<< < (2/3) > >>

pickle:
looking good Phil (as usual) but couldn't you get the lead from old burner tubes?   ;)

firebird4130:
cool might give that a go on some dropouts ,thanks for the info  :daumenhoch:

jT Racing:
it's good untill the first time you tighten a nut and the soft lead distortes again. better use a really big assed washer.

gjs:
what does lead melt at,and how hot is the oven for powder coating :LolLolLolLol:

davie1967:
Nice job there. a word of warning about lead though. its very toxic and breathing the fumes is not recommended. if you dont know what your doing i would suggest not trying it . if the lead when melting/melted comes into contact with water it can explode.
 we use it in the blacksmith trade for securing raikings etc.
