David, 
Perhaps it might warrant some studies by Stephen B.? I'm waaaay to crude in shop, etc. to do anything other than speculate.<G>

David asked: "I have just tried David Love's suggestion of 1/2 through holes which gets you about .3 or .4 grams, a simple tap with hammer and lead punch...simplicity... 
 
What does the List think of 1/2 way holes rather than all the way through? 2 1/2 holes equals one through for about the same weight...."
 
David,
I should think that the 1/2 way through would put the hammer in a bit of a inertial imbalance. <G> (worth a thought, I think.)
