The PwdRacing Heavy Weights made from advanced TUNGSTEN composites from Tundra(tm) are starting to roll down the tracks!
The family has grown and the "normal items" that I have are:
1" diameter disc 2oz
1" diameter disc 2.5oz.
1.25" diameter disc 2oz,
1.25" diameter disc 2.5oz,
1.25" diameter disc 3.25oz,
1.25" diameter disc 4oz,
1.25" diameter disc 4.5oz
3/8" round rod, about 1.5" long, 1oz each
1/4" square bar, about 1.5" long, 5 pieces are 3.25oz
3.2mm diameter spheres, sold per ounce.
Thin slabs, </8" thick, 3/4" wide, about 1.5" long, 1oz each
Some vendors will have the 1/4" square bars in 1/2 oz segments too!
These are NON-TOXIC!
The nice part is that all of them are "workable" with normal tools!
This means that you can sand, drill, carve, and cut the material.
They can be cut with a good quality scissors or a Cub Scout pocket knife! This makes the 3/8" diameter sticks very nice for use in their current form. Drill the holes in the side of the car and slip them in!
No more do you have to sacrifice design for the weights!
Place the weights where they are desired without worring about having to cut the axles short!!!!
The 1/4" square bars are perfect for the LesterRacing Laser cut bodies with the square weight pockets. You can even cut out the wood bar for the axle spot and put the tungsten there instead. Very optimal for placing the weight where you want. Easy to make a 1/4" thick car.
UPDATED with Current Prices December, 2009!
A quick page for ordering:
www.TundraWeights.com
Those who sent in proxy cars in December should have gotten a small present of the 1/4" square bars. (Derby Widow did find one left on the counter...so if your box didn't have a present, please PM me.)
The 1/4" products with a couple of the Lester Laser bodies.
