[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4295524, member: 15054"] I used a sawzall to cut some bricks of mixed lead that were over 100 lbs and much thicker than you have. about 6"x 6" I tried a chissel and then a splitting wedge and even tried an axe blade that i modified the other side so i could hammer on it. No go. Sawzall worked fine but you must pour/trickle water slowly on the blade to keep the lead from melting into the blade. Or it will not work for very long. What you have will go quite fast and you could lay a sheet or pillowcase under the cutting area to catch the falling bits and collect them for use. I used Milwaukee white blades [/QUOTE]
