Making mono-eyes
1. Cut a 1/2? ~ 3/4? monofilament (mono) of the appropriate diameter. The finished eye?ball? will be approximately twice the diameter of the mono.
2. Hold the mono in the center with hemostats or needle-nose pliers.
3. Heat one end of the mono with a cigarette lighter until it melts into a ball.
4. Blow gently on the melted ball to cool and harden it.
5. If it ignites blow it out! It is best to start over with another piece of mono as the ignited one is usually unusable and/or too short to use.
6. Do the same to the other end. This is the end that you will mess up!
