I’m old and have a lead lined pouch for protecting camera film when going through airport x-ray machines. Like this.
Are there any alternate/modern/current/hip uses for this? It’s in great shape, it was well made and didn’t see much use.
The only thing I could think of was putting my toll road transponder in it to keep it from being seen when I drive under the toll readers, but I haven’t yet come up with a reason why I’d want to do that.
I wouldn’t put my lunch in it, IMHO.
Jell-O mold.
Kryptonite/Superman:eek:
I got nuttin.:rolleyes:
I spit up my tea, all because of you:)
Do you have a recipe?
If Australia is ever nuked you could be the caretaker for small radioactive marsupials.
Incorrect! I have one too; they’re not that big. The correct answer is you could be the radioactive caretaker for a (single) small, unradiated marsupial. 
Hmmm, I’ve got a flight this weekend & some old film at home; if there’s room in the carryon…
My recollection is that when I did use one they never checked the contents; yeah, I only put film in them but still, this is a pouch specifically designed to block the x-ray machine. :smack:
Funnily enough, I just ran across mine when cleaning out a closet. I hadn’t seen it in years and didn’t realize that I still had it. It’s going to the thrift store unless I see a very good idea in the next couple of days.
Put a note that reads, “Made you look, you dirty crook, you stole your mother’s pocketbook!” in it, then carry it with you in carry-on luggage and see how often you get special screening.
You might want to wait until the TSA agent’s start getting paid again…
You could use it as a very inconvenient RFID blocking wallet.
Hiding your porno from Superman.
Handy TSA screening junk protector for guys…
I wouldn’t just put it in a thrift store unless it was marked as containing lead.

If you can fashion it into a hat you should be able to use it in instances when you wanted to block the Psi Power.
Fill it with beans and use it to play cornhole.
Why? There are all kinds of things in thrift stores that have lead in them.
Extra protection for your “family jewels” during your next medical X-ray.
Such as? Whatever they are I doubt they contain elemental lead covered in something soft that kids might use.

Vintage toys that a kid might use.
I highly doubt a kid is going to use an old film pouch as a toy. I’m sure their parents will keep them somewhere safe like with the guns and ammo. Those things were pretty common up until not too long ago and I’m not aware of any problems.
I’ve got three of them somewhere. I have no idea where.
