Mike is going to start pouring belly weights as soon as he modify's a mold he has. He needs a piece of stock to make the thing work. :wavey: I do think he has some though. P.M.

Buckshot. O and OO guage workd pretty good.

Why not pour your own weights?

great, now Dunkin Donuts is getting into Plugbuilding too.
Now Im really screwwed. :whackin:

If you can pour your own, by all means DO IT(no pun intended).
also chk out the LEEPRECISION bullet molds, but those may be illegal with the wacky Mass Laws you guys have up there :rollem: . The bullet molds can be machined DOWN to any height you want & Any machine shop with a milling machine can do this in like 3 minutes or less, give the guy like $10 buck, then simply re thread the screw for the top shear plate and pour away.
or use buckshot. The round Ball molds are also great i you want to go larger, they come in MANY calibers up to like .58,which is enough belly weight for almost any plug.

hope this helps

I'll do it for you for $10.95 :bl: Paul

Make your own molds and pour your own...
Take a piece of 4/4 (1") Maple stock 2" x 6".
Cut it in half so that you have two 2" x 3" pieces.
Clamp them together so that you have a 2x3 x 8/4 (2") block
using a drill press (or being very careful with a hand drill to drill straight down) Drill a hole exactly between the two pieces about 3"-4" deep using a drill bit to match the dia of the slug that you want so that when you unclamp the wood, you have 1/2 the hole in each half of the wooden mold.
Clamp them back together and pour your slug(s).

This can work for making tail weights too - I Do the same as above but I start with a 1/8" bit (to match my thru-hole dia) and then counter sink the hole to the desired slug dia. I then replace the 1/8" bit with a 1/8" metal rod and pour the lead in. Then just grab the 1/8" rod with the drill chuck and spin it out and then open the mold. - Perfect, concentric tail weights!
