I keep messing up.........let me try again

 

Insert needle and cover with Teflon tape

 

cover with hot glue,and when it starts to solidify,start ribbing

 

It willlook something like this

 

 

When cold, pull the body off the needle, run a piece of mono through the hole left by the needle. Melt the backof the mono and,still hot, pull it to touch the body. Let it cool.

That's a neat idea. I might have to give that a try. I think that would make a neat body on a pupa or a nymph. Thanks ciccio.

I agree awesome post. Hey can the admin or mod make a copy of this thread over in the step by step so we have it there as well. That is where I search for cool stuff like this.
