Hi all, Something I ;earned workin with weights in plugs. No matter what you use at some time the weight is gonna come back at you. When sanding you create heat. It softens the epoxy or putty. The high speed is gonna send a bullet back at you. I stopped using wood putty due to this. I use 2 ton epoxy or rod building epoxy to hold the weights in and let them set for 24 hrs so it completely hardens. A turners apron ,face shield and a mask work good. Add a dust system and it gets safer.
