Show HN: Non-Lead Pickleball Weights – Material Science FTW

My buddies and I love playing pickleball and also nerded out to make some non-lead pickleball weights. We use a copper suspended in a polymer to make flexible, non-toxic weights. Took vacation to attend a wedding in Brazil, so you can also see them photo'd in some amazing locations. We originally just wanted to make them to get the lead out of the game, but we found that they were more shock-absorbative than their lead predecessors. We ship them out of Idaho. If anyone wants them, we'd love to get you some!
