Bit of balsa dowel cut and sanded down, drilled out carefully and in-line lead insert fitted. Painted with a grey primer and then sealed with clear varnish spray. Due to how small you can make them with the buoyancy of balsa roughly works out at £1 per float or less. They don't take that long to make either.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
