this is how i'm weighting mine,,then just fill the whole thing up with gorilla glue..
i get the weights from #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&.com. you could probly get some wood from him too?
i might make a bondo mold to melt wheel wieghts into some kind of cone shape. not sure? they should work like this?
i gotta wait till you take me offshore again to test 'em
