Top Ramen Posted June 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Cant find tungsten putty ANYWHERE.. and places? Did you order or what? Any hobby store that sells Soap Box Derby supplies should have it. It is also available on ebay. If you are converting one bait, one ounce of putty is plenty. In this case, I used 24g. There are currently over thirty listings for tungsten putty on ebay. Amazon has five or six listings. It is also available from TackleWarehouse. If you have a local hobby store that carries Soap Box Derby supplies, they probably have it in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
