@mid.individual.net:

Just a thought - copper foil requires much more solder than lead came, so
Kris the Health Noodge just wants to remind you: "Safety First" - be sure
you
have very good ventilation and/or some sort of fume trap, so that the lead
vapor is pulled *away* from you.

The boiling point of Lead is 3180*F; I can't imagine vapor is a problem.
The fumes from the flux are an entirely different matter. Yuck.
