Kerllets (was) Anchor lines
Another modus I saw first hand is to take a coffee or pineapple juice,
better, can, cut off the top, pour lead into it, and sink a big figure-8 of heavy SS wire into it to the V of the top circle. Let it cool, cut off the can, and you have a very heavy, cheap, kellet...

But why go to the bother of cutting away the can?
A few uses and it should go away by itself. BF "Skip Gundlach" skipgundlach at gmail dotcom wrote in message ...

I'm into efficiency, but the residue cleanup would be more effort than the cutaway :{)) L8R Skip, older and wiser, but not yet rusting away -- Morgan 461 #2 SV Flying Pig KI4MPC http://tinyurl.com/384p2 The vessel as Tehamana, as we bought her "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
