im looking for some old or used cranks you may not want any more. im going to try my hand at custom painting a few and thought it would be a good idea to try to start learning on some very old or used ones. im figuring it might give me a new hobby for the off season

also you can practice on pieces of wood and plastic… if i can find anything that i dont use anymore or is broken ill send it your way.

Look at BPS for the Frenzy Divers.  Look specifically for the ones that are already white.  They are relitively cheap - $1.88 - and should serve you well for practicing.

Also, checkout this website.  You can buy unpainted bodies for $1 each:
