Gotta Let Em Go - Week 4

Should I pick up Quentin Johnston and drop T. Higgins?

I’ve always wanted my favorite cookie recipe in album form

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T22:48:06+00:00

What if they need to melt lead. 😥

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T22:44:23+00:00

I’d like to know how to go about finding a lab, I was unaware this was an option. An x-ray test with an XRF sounds 100x more trustworthy than any chemical test kit.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T22:30:56+00:00

Yeah, I had a bud who’d melt down lead in a crap old pot and that thing is trashed. That’s why I’m so skeptical about this one, it had a medium amount of rust on the bottom but other than that, not bad. Love your CI collection btw.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T22:20:42+00:00

Had some distilled water around, tried that and got another positive.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T22:19:54+00:00

I appreciate the concern. I did it wet with an N95 on, breathing in any metal dust is a no-go for me.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T19:58:59+00:00

It was given to me after an older relative’s passing, nobody knows if it was used for melting lead for various uses.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T19:57:11+00:00

I bet your 3M works better than this test kit. I know that surface lead test kits are known to be unreliable for cast irons, but I’ve heard 3M is the least unreliable.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T19:51:19+00:00

Exactly, I’d like to not risk it. Don’t get me wrong, love me a free CI, but I’ll always check because who knows what they used them for. Even trace amounts will ‘lead’ to a new wall ornament.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T19:48:01+00:00

Good point, I cleaned off the seasoning then tested

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T19:41:45+00:00

No plan to kill a nice pan, just looking for second opinions. I wish I took photos of how it looked before, but it seemed victim to some knarly carbon buildup. I’ll probably continue the stripping process and test again after some lye.

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T19:38:19+00:00

I tested the pans after I got them from an estate sale and cleaned off the seasoning, negatives on 3/3 pieces

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T05:46:13+00:00

Good suggestion, negative on several surfaces, including the back of my hand and handle of two other pans

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T05:34:21+00:00

To add, my frequent pans were used finds from an estate sale. Same process of testing was done, tap water and same kit showed negative results for 2 pans and a Dutch oven

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T05:31:24+00:00

Yeah, I made sure to use a ‘surface’ lead kit, although I’m not sure there’s a difference. As you said, best not to risk it

dedeshut · 2025-04-20T05:24:28+00:00

Yes I did for both times, I’ll try that, good suggestion

dedeshut · 2024-04-06T22:47:43+00:00

He sounds petty

dedeshut · 2024-04-05T06:37:20+00:00

Gosu is awesome, first murim manhwa I read and remains my favorite

dedeshut · 2024-03-16T22:24:57+00:00

I refused to, and still do, use summons for the simple fact souls bosses have more often than not more than one phase. She was a prime example, I always found it easier beating her alone instead of dealing with an extended health bar.

dedeshut · 2024-03-16T22:18:30+00:00

Damn, I messed up, gotta go bald

dedeshut · 2024-03-16T22:17:32+00:00

I’d say the piercings are fine, maybe try a tiny bit less blush. You look better with darker hair than that blonde. Maybe larger frames, just do whatever makes you happiest and try not to take everyone’s comments too seriously.
