Thank you, that is much appreciated.

Another option that avoids flames and hot lead gases is to buy sheet lead from McMaster Carr supply.
It would involve cutting a bunch of discs out of sheet and drilling holes which is easy in thin sheet.
Anything up to 1/8 thick is easily cut with tin snips.
If you know size and stack height it is easy to match the factory weights.
Good luck
