I have plenty of linotype and no solder, and we know the antimony will harden the alloy when mixed with lead--but linotype has tin content also.  Is there a mix ratio anyone knows of to get comparable 20:1  and 30:1 mixes using linotype instead of 50/50 solder?

I would think that if you tried to add enough lynotype to get the tin up to 20-1 or 30-1 your going to be way harder with the antimony. Best bet would be to trade some of your lynotype for tin.
