Land Ordinance of 1785. Provisions: Townships 6 miles square would be surveyed then divided into sections equaling 1 square mile. The sections were to be sold in lots of 640 acres at no less than $1 per acre. The revenue from the sale of one section for each township would be used to develop public education.
You heat up the lead dip it in the powder presto changeo you have shiney colored lead. There is even a clear coat with sparkles. Shiny Lead from Sam W. (64.72.54.252) 2/10/2003 10:21:00 AM. I used to be in the commercial reloading business.
The ancient Romans used lead to make plumbing pipes, as joining pins for limestone building blocks and it was popular amongst Roman alchemists. Historically, tin and lead were hard to distinguish between. The Romans called lead 'plumbum nigrum' (black lead) and tin was called 'plumbum candidum' (bright lead). The melting point of lead is 621.4 Â°F (327.46 Â°C) and the boiling point is 3,180.2 Â°F (1,749 Â°C). In 2008, Australia, China and the United States produced the most lead.
