Soft Mesh Weights

Works perfect for my application.

Hard to write a raving review about a pound of lead shot. I use it fill the hollow handles of wood turning tools in my shop. The added weight stabilizes the tool

I didn’t have issues with the residue some other reviews mentioned.

I put the weight bad into an ols copper vase that I repurposed into an umbrella stand. Ther weights kept the vase fron falling over.

The weight pearls are extremely small, thought the bag was able to be opened to be split between pouches on weight belt, came later than when I needed them so had to go a different route. Will use this for something else

I originally bought the six pound pack for the purpose of adding weight to a table lamp that kept tipping over. I opened up a seam in the mesh covering and used gorilla glue to secure a single layer at a time to the base of the lamp -- adding layers until the base was filled with the lead shot. I then glued felt over the bottom. Worked great! I had about 80% of the shot left, so I clamped the hole shut in the mesh bag and ended up using it to prevent an outdoor christmas topiary from tipping over. I just set the mesh pack on the base of the topiary. I had a pair of the topiaries, so I bought a second 6 pound shot weight! After the holidays, I used the weights to secure covers on outdoor furniture. I can think of many uses for this product! I'm now glad that I had the unstable table lamp which lead to me (no pun intended) to this handy product!

I use this for melting down to add weight to Pinewood Derby cars. I host a workshop for my Cub Scout Pack and used all 5 pounds this year. It’s the cheapest way to get lead online that I’ve found.Good: It’s new, clean, small (smaller than BBs) and uniform in size, so it’s easy to measure out and weigh what you need. Also, it’s coated in antimony, so until it’s melted down, I don’t have to worry as much about my boys touching raw lead.Bad: Being coated in antimony means it is harder than pure lead. It takes a bit more heat to get the initial melting point. Not a huge deal, but you can tell a difference going from these to, say, split shot fishing sinkers (which are much more expensive by weight, mind you). It isn’t a deal breaker though.I bought a cheap steel serving spoon and pinched the ‘nose’ of it to allow a more precise pour. I heat what I need right in the spoon and pour into the cavities I’ve drilled in the cars. Nice tidy weight that allows for the point of balance to be quite far back near the rear wheels. Tip: paint the finished pour with clear fingernail polish once it’s cooled so your kid isn’t touching the lead when handling his/her car.

The product was well packaged and delivered quickly. There was a small clerical error that the team at DipnDive addressed and corrected quickly. Excellent customer support by this vendor.
