If the boolit is .001 to .002 over groove size you do not need to size, no. 4 oz. will do a LOT of boolits. A few drops on the boolits in the bottom of a ice cream pail and swirl a while. I usually add drops until I can just see a slight color change to the boolits. Spread on wax paper and let dry overnight. Load and shoot!

    Wondering what snaggdit would actually look like if he ever cleaned his face? Wonder if he ever cleans his face or is this the way he always goes out in public?
    If a man has nothing greater to believe in than himself, he is a very lonely man.

    You could look a few days ago in Swapping and Selling for a thread I started about borrowing a sinker mold. I posted a few fishing pics and I don't need to wear camo to catch fish! LOL
