I bought a blank do-it mold and drilled holes in it with a drill press - 1/4" , 5/16" and 3/8" and then drilled a smaller hole enough to hold a coathanger wire so when I pour the lead, the wire is centered and gives me a nice tailweight that the stainless wire goes right thru.

Or you can just buy weights from NJtackle.
