wscorpion Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Where's the picture of it? I only see one from June 2008, so that can't be it, or is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Nice Blob Gary Looks like the measurements were spot on just leave it out in the rain to rust up a little then keep drying and chalking it and soon you will lift it then when it gets easy just polish it again to make it harder to lift. I would say thats probably harder than any normal blob as it is right there so when you can lift that you will get most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol999 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Yeah, found them in FAQ However, looking at the measurements for the 50lb, it appears to have an overall length of 7 7/16" and the radii of the flat spot on the end is 3-7/8" at top sloping out to 5-1/2" for the overall diameter. The flat spot on yours appears to be less than 3-7/8". Is this deliberate or am I mis-interpreting the dimensions? Cheers, Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
