Hot glue grubs and extended bodies

Recommended Posts

Clamp a needle in the vise, wrap some plumber tape around it and color with a marker.post-17812-1288838746_thumb.jpg

 

Cover the needle with hot glue, and when it start to harden rib it.

When cold, pull the body off the needle and run a piece of mono through the hole left by the needle.

Melt the back of the mono and, still hot, pull it to touch the body.

Let it cool
