Interesting, thanks for the answer :)

I remember my mom playing around with stained glass for a while back around 2004, because the house needed a repair of some old leaded glass and why not learn more? She was using lead stuff but idk if that was because it was the only thing available or if it was just to use the same materials.

I remember using solder with lead in my electronics class in 2004. Removing lead from stuff still feels pretty recent

I still used leaded solder because I could never get lead free to behave for me.

I still use lead solder, there's lead free but it's use it's not super common as far as I'm aware.
