Becuase the pigs ARE retangular, and the keel is not, there are some 'voids' or 'vacancies' into which I hope to pour lead shot so as to fill these voids. I figure I'll need a couple hundred lbs. I've discovered a few sites on the 'Net selling 25lb bags for $15, but am hoping that the assembled brain-trust can suggest a less expensive option. Mike Worrall Los Angeles |
