How To Make A Radioactive Containment Container

I hold a lead pig with a highly radioactive source here. Welcome to Wheeler scientific in today's video, I am going over how and why I made this.
Firstly what is a lead pig? A lead pig is a device used to store and transport radioactive items safely. I made this lead pig a while back; the original intent was to create a neutron source using radium and beryllium. I scraped that idea to make a radium point source for nuclear demonstrations. I have so far used this source in a few of my videos, such as inverse square law and bending radiation. The fact that the source only can output in one direction makes it safer and easier to use for such demos.
