Good to know. I remember the lathes back in high school had little daubers in the tail stock for holding white lead to apply to the dead centers we used. Also back in the day, white lead was used to check the contact pattern on ring and pinion gears when setting up a rear differential.
Just for grins I did an ebay search for white lead. And what do you know... I just bought a NOS 1 lb. can of the stuff.
