Lead weights?
I use lead-free solder. Available at any hardware store. It is not as
dense as lead, but it is dense enough. If you really want lead, you might can find solid lead solder or 60/40 -- I think it is used to repair radiators. Watch out for acid core solder; you don't want that. --Bob william kossack wrote: I try to resist mailorder for such small things because you end up paying as much for shipping as the item cost. I've been keeping my eyes out for sheet lead that could be cut into strips but I have not had the time to really look for any. However, the potsherds approach seems to work.

I've had to resort to using potsherds that I've drilled and tied together with string or fishing -- |
