Haven't decided how to process these yet.
I bought 20 lbs of them. They are mushroom tip, brass body. Either the mushroom is pressed into the brass body, or the brass is crimped ever so slightly.
Is there an easy way to mechanically separate the body from the silver? I have ideas, but I like learning from others mistakes too. It's not soldered in I dont' think. If I was really desperate, I'd set it up in the lathe...but I'm not really that desperate. I'll let them sit on the shelf before I do that.
Actual silver contact is 90/10 Ag/Cd. The chemistry part is easy, it's the mechanical separation.
