Faded and secluded in the shade of the carports and on the backyards of workshops, a past craft is alive in the minds of those who saw it. The action of heating up scraps of lead or tin in a cast iron spoon brings with it memories of an era where one had to be inventive so as to survive. It was not only a useful skill which was taught by fathers to their children but at the same time, was an activity that helped to spend time together and develop accuracy and patience.

The image of the molten metal dripping on the concave of a rough spoon like some kind of an ancient tool can be seen in many folklore stories. These are homemade ingots that were made to produce bullets for guns or sinkers for fishing; all of them narrate the story of self-sufficiency. Before the age of factory made products especially those that are convenient to use, people have to make their own fishing sinkers or bullets which is both fun and cost effective.
