How hard would it be to pour finesse drop shot weights but with a round eye tie instead of the pinched off version. Can any one on here do it?

It's as easy as turning the dropshot swivel end-for-end in the mold. I first tried this to eliminate a step in making weights for Jika rigs; with the ring end of this specialized hardware up, there's no need to widen the line gripping end to attach a split ring.

To eliminate my use of strong language, I use fine point tweezers to position the hardware in the mold.
