Impressive, don't think I've ever seen anyone actually melt and cast lead into a nose weight. As a much simpler alternative: Tungsten Putty. It is easily hand formed into any shape, is somewhat sticky so it stays in place, is non-toxic, and does not dry out. As a bonus tungsten is 1.7 times the density of lead.
