Location: Culloden, WV		These are couple balsa cranks. I haven't made any in long while and tried to simplify the process of making the line through, weighting, sealing, and painting them even the bill and bill slot. They seem to be the most matched pair weighing 27g before hooks, rings, and two top coats. They are 6" and I hope run 3-4ft.
