belly weights
I turned off some small needles this morning and dont want to use the belly weights I picked up from NJ tackle-they are too big. Is there anyone out there that sell 1/4" x 1/4" belly weight slugs or anything close?
Thanks

go to a gun shop and buy some lead shot. 00, #1, #2 etc. Flatten with a hammer if necessary to fit hole....

I have a lead pot if you want to pour them in.
You're welcome to come over and do it.

And if before you pour it you use a 1/4 inch dovetail bit to make the bottom of the hole bigger it'll nevah come out.

I just finished a batch of small needles and used the .25 ounce NJTackle tail weight cut into thirds with a pair of snips. Next time I'll pour them, but this worked...

Spence, can use a ladle from plumbing supply house, (Home Cheapo maybe?)
Used for setting toilet flange with lead, heat with torch and pour
As for dovetail idea, I don't get how you can plunge the bit without opening surface to max diameter??? Is it me?

Tinman includes these 1/4" OD with the new kits. I'll ask if he can supply them separately and get them up on the site. |
