Thats gonna be fun considering it's a base element of the planet and almost 30 percent of the make-up of all clay is lead.Always nice when idiots forget to read the whole chapter and only what they want to hear.Anyone know of anyplace that isn't full of clay besides the deserts.

Walmart also has Brass weights, which are much better than steel
