Lead Tin Soldier how safe is figurines made of white metal "lead/tin"?
well im wondering as there is a australian site that makes australian soldiers thou they use white metal so im wondering how safe it is. as i would like to buy them
Sweet Grandma is pretty close...
As long as you're an ADULT and not planning on chewing them or permitting children to chew on them you're VERY safe !! Your concern will be the excess metal when you prepare them:
I wear a face mask and latex gloves when filing and preparing my white-metal figures / soldiers, then prime them and paint them... I collect the filings and dispose of them at a haz-mat site.

July 13, Baoding Hui-De Wind Power Engineering Co., Ltd. production workshop, dozens of ready made to the Zhejiang-megawatt wind power machine undergoing final debugging; In the meantime, a good news from USA and Germany came the state of Texas, the company first exported to the U.S. for 10 turbines have been generating 20 million degrees, and is operating normally.
Hui Tak strong momentum of development of wind power, but high-tech zone of Baoding new energy industries in the international financial crisis on the impact of contrarian and a typical example.
Since the second half of 2008, as the international financial crisis struck, many domestic industries, especially export-oriented economy has serious difficulties, but the Hi-tech Zone, Baoding new energy industry will grow strong, showing an excellent capacity to resist risks.
Baoding Hi-tech Zone's statistics show that from January to May this year, Baoding, "China Electric Valley" of industrial output value 10.0 billion year on year increase of 7.5%; to achieve industrial sales income of 10.66 billion yuan, an increase of 10.4%. Baoding High-tech Zone of industrial output value 17.9 billion, up 14.2%; industrial sales income of 17.06 billion yuan, an increase of 7.5%; to achieve financial income 740 million yuan, an increase of 34.5%.
Solar energy "beautiful myth"
It is learned that, Baoding "China Power Valley" the building of the past two years, all new Yingli 3, the wind power industry park, soldiers loaded Tianwei Industrial Park invested billions of dollars and a number of large projects, new businesses more than 100 sales income and taxes doubled in two years nearly quadrupled, to become the most growth potential in Hebei Province, an important industry.
Is located in Baoding, "China Electric Valley" Yingli Group, is a company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the whole industrial chain of photovoltaic solar energy manufacturers. The face of international financial crisis, Yingli Group, conducted a series of strategic adjustments quickly, creating opportunities and challenges.
Tianwei Yingli New Energy Co., Ltd., Chairman Miao Liansheng that "the crisis comes, there is a risk, but there are opportunities there. For companies concerned, I would like to believe 'their territories, courage wins, Meet the brave wise man win'." Miao Lian-Sheng analysis, the global PV market by 2010, governments will continue to be driven by the rapid development of market potential is tremendous, and will pay more attention to product quality, price, brand and after-sales service.
"Coping with crisis, we expect and prepare for long." Late last year, Yingli Group, the first substantial price cuts in the industry, the PV module sales price directly from the original four U.S. dollars fell to 2.8 U.S. dollars, which got orders steadily to occupy the market. Yingli Group, dare to do that with is their strength: Yingli Group has the most complete industrial chain, and is still being continuously improved; have a Jin Baixiang independent innovations is the world's lowest-cost non-silicon business, there are other companies can not match and the core competitiveness to grasp the initiative in the market. Therefore, Yingli within the group, talking about the current international financial crisis, more people are talking about the "danger" in the "machine", and how to seize the "danger" in the "machine."
In 2008, Yingli Group's production of 280 megawatts of solar cell components, to achieve sales revenue 8.5 billion, profit 1.35 billion and exports worth 1.03 billion U.S. dollars, and in 2007 an increase of 100%. Baoding new energy industry as a leader and a "China Power Valley" the backbone of enterprise, Tianwei Yingli Group, Baoding High-tech Zone of development of new energy industry in microcosm.
Baoding High-tech Zone Party Working Committee, the CMC director of Sun Goldrich introduced in the field of photovoltaic industry, the park in order to Yingli Group, led by the one hand, large-scale expansion of PV modules to maintain momentum on the other hand speed up the industrial system, in high - Pure silicon production and localization of accessory products such as the project has entered a substantive operational phase, Tianwei amorphous thin-film photovoltaic cells and other new technologies based on key projects put into operation during the year can be realized.
At present, Baoding High-tech Zone polysilicon production capacity up to 3,000 tons of ingots, wafers, cells, components, production capacity reached 600 megawatts, has formed a solar photovoltaic product development, manufacturing and application of a complete industrial chain, an international solar light V industrial system is taking shape.
Scale of wind power industrial chain advantage
In addition to solar photovoltaic industry, Baoding High-tech Zone wind power industry has also been rapid development. , Baoding High-tech Zone is currently in the field of wind power already have wind power equipment and related businesses more than 20, forming a wind power machine assembly, blades, control systems and related products made up of wind power equipment industry clusters and a more complete wind power industrial chain, with mandarin wind power, the national electric co-power, three days imposing electric machine manufacturing facility. Among them, mandarin wind power in the domestic first megawatt-class wind turbine to achieve 75% localization rate requirements, and for the first one in 2008 to achieve megawatt-class wind turbine exported to the U.S.; national electric power company put into production the first year of the joint realization of 100 1.5-megawatt wind power production target machine to complete the sales income 6 billion in one fell swoop into the country top five ranks of wind power machine.
In addition, Baoding High-tech Zone wind power industry, leading enterprises in China National Aviation Corporation Teng-hui has become the world's second-largest leaf production enterprises, their production of leaf size from 600KW to 1.5MW covers all the leaf type, wind blade production exceeded 4000 Deputy, in 2008 achieved sales income 20 billion yuan, up 67%, accounting for 40% of the domestic market share.
In the blade, driven by large-scale production, Baoding High-tech Zone of wind power industrial chain started and is leading the formation of leaves, the whole follow-up, control system, supporting full range of wind power equipment industry clusters. Baoding High-tech district in the current Air-hui Tang, China could wind power, wind power Huayi, Tin imposing electricity, Tianyi leaves, State Power Joint Power 6 blade production enterprises, State Power united power, space power and prestige power, wind power Hui Tak 3 wind power machine manufacturing enterprises, Corona's a family style electrical control business, has formed a production capacity of wind power machine 1000, 2000 sets of wind blades, wind power control system 500 sets the scale of development.
By the international financial crisis, countries in the world hope that through the development of new energy industry, leading the national economic recession. At present, China's new draft plan for the revitalization of the energy industry has been worked out, or will soon be baked. Despite the different claims of the draft, but the total investment of China's new energy industry will reach tens of thousands of yuan, of which wind power will account for a large proportion has become conclusive. SUN JIN Bo said that this would Baoding High-tech Zone has formed a scale advantages of wind power industry has brought unprecedented opportunities for development.
Matthew independent innovation
High-tech Zone in Baoding, anywhere can feel the power of innovation brought about shock. 3 Sichuan Electric Company Chairman and Managing Director, led by Dr. Hao Yushan, high-tech field in the power of science carried out an unremitting study, out of a self-innovation. The company has the international advanced level developed by a major power grid stabilization system will enable power saving 3% of China's annual energy-saving 15 million degrees. CNAC Teng-hui continued to explore the international advanced materials development and production, through the many years of study, broke through the 1.2-megawatt wind power blades developed by technical difficulties, so that the international price of each blade of wind power has dropped by 40% or more.
In 2005, China's first wind blade research and development center set up in Baoding High-tech Zone. The Center brings together 15 national Academy of Sciences, now in the leaves shaped research and development, high-power blades and other key areas of development to achieve a breakthrough. November 12, 2007, the nation's largest-level (2 MW), with independent intellectual property rights of wind power blades in Baoding Huayi research and development of wind power blades successful offline. Through unremitting efforts, Huayi Wind power has been a great success: the CTC, ECN, AeroDyn and a number of famous foreign wind power companies and research institutions to conduct exchanges and cooperation, through joint design, master 850KW, 1.0MW, 1.2MW , 1.5MW, 2.0MW series of blade design process and design methods. In addition, Huayi is also abreast of the technological frontier, the ongoing 3MW offshore wind power blade-level co-design.
At present, Baoding High-tech Zone New Energy and Industrial base for a total of 863 projects undertaken four national key science and technology research program 3, the state localization of innovation and development of major equipment items 5, with the outcome of the national 863 Program into a base one.
