Hey Buckie, who says ya can't teach an old dog new tricks, I'll be going to the tire stores asap to look up some old wheel weights, what an idea /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif ! Now if I only had a ballast box /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif but the way I do things I'm sure I'll come up with a way to spend just as much money, & twice as much time to build a ballast box as looking into buying one. I get a sense of pride doing this nonsense of building things instead of buying them, plus that way I can complain that I never have time to relax. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Anyhow thanks for the idea of the lead weights, I've wondered what in the heck people put in ballast boxes that you can take out easily, sand would get full of water and rust the metal, concrete is a little permanent, firewood isn't heavy enough, etc. but lead weights would let water run through, and be easy to take out......great idea, you get the high fives from me! thank you! Have a great day!
