you can use fiberglass kitty hair stuff if you want.
i got so good at hiding weights that when i finally got a plug to swim right i couldn't remember how i weighted it.
now i don't care if it shows. i want it to show a little.
lotta guys who swap wanna know how there made/weighted if it's a winner. so they can make the same plugs.
too much work for a stinkin' plug that you want to get beat.

I can understand how some would want the plugs weight and location not to show but for me I use Famowood and have no problems and if it shows a little, no big woof. Being basically a slacker when it comes to such things two part stuff is "two" much work. Drill the hole, slam the ball in there and stuff the old Famowood in. 1/2 hour later sand that puppy and your off.

Interesting though to see how many options you have got. Thanks!

Why even try.........

no, never seen that stuff

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Famo Wood Glaze is a bar top epoxy like Envirotex. It works about as well.
