I just got an old beat DM2 and its the first time trying one. It’s not half bad but I would love to add 3-4 grams to it. There seems to be ample room without the caps for some rings. Any suggestion? How about soldering copper wire inside the rim? ---

Dang dude, isn’t 69 grams enough? That’s already too heavy for most people. ---

Look for some rubber orings at a hardware store. They are normally in the plumbing area. ---
