Discus b lead ballast plates wanted

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 UH
