After seeing some of Tony Spezio's extended Body works of art I want to try
them. First I need to get some ideas on how to do it and some recipes then
try. But I will probably wait till we get moved into the house. All we need
now is a load of propane and some parts for the well pump. Soon my friends

Mike-
Totally agree with you. The magazine article made it
look dead simple, like they all do. It's a neat idea
alright, but when I tried it only 1 out of 4 or so was
usable. Most of them wound up as gooey wads of fuzz
and thread. Way too much time spent for the result.
Have you tried furled yarn? Different effect, but easy
to do.
