My favorite floats have been discontinued and are getting to be miserable hard to find anymore so I fixed the problem in the shop. Serve me up some balsa wood, acrylic rod, sand paper and my dremel and here we go.
The above photo shows my handiwork prior to sealing and painting. One of the commercial floats is shown for comparison. The unfinished ones are hand turned to what I think is a very close approximation to the original.
And below they have been painted and sealed and the latex bands put on the stems that are used if one wants to make the floats fixed.
