Good answer to these accidents looking for a place to happen.  That's why=

use a kiln and protective clothing in our business to manufacture lead
products.  If they want a first hand account of what a splash of lead doe=
s to
flesh, they can call me at 1-800-635-5050.  It is painfull and long term
healing.  The infection possibility alone is sufficient reason not to mes=
