Thanks. I through drill with a 1/8 bit and the metal rods you use to support fiberglass insulation are 1/8" and are pretty stiff and they fit very nicely in the hole and you can get em bythe box at HD...

I'm hoping to just drop the rod in the hole, pour the lead and pull the rod out. That way I can just drill to different depths to get different sized tail weights without having to cut em all on the bandsaw and handling all the lead.
