Cool...
I could remove a 1/2 oz from that no problem..Just put the nose flat onto a sander.I have a table top belt sander I use all the time for stuff like that.U would be surprised how many guys make there own stuff.I have a friend who ground out his own eelsquid tin out of a do-it mold with a dremel.It's real good too.I have another friend who I call the bondo king.Has more jigs than u can imagine,never bought a single mold..

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..
