Need to add weight to a dished kitchen table leg. Think of a giant bowl. I was going to use concrete in the bowl and BB's in the vertical upright. Which is basicly a 2" ID tube. Does anyone know of a substitue for the concrete? Trying to keep it a little cleaner because this will all be chrome plated.


Similar bottom shape. Need to fill the underside of the base.

Melt some lead in the base

+1 lead is easy to work with just be careful if your grinding. I dont know how the heat will affect the chrome plating though. Also, carefull with adding the BB's all the way up the colum, it may make it unstable
