Srsly, how much weight do you carry?streamlining
If you carry 10kg, that's a little more than 0.5L of tungsten. 10kg of lead is a tad less than 1L. Not to mention that you won't be able to melt tungsten to mold it.
When they make moldable tungsten stuff like tungsten shot they put tungsten powder in a matrix of copper alloy, iron or polymer, and the composite has a density of about or just a little more than lead. I'd stay with lead. Almost as heavy and a lot easier to work with.
