Yeah, that's how I usually build things. Unfortunately, my having an attention deficit disorder I tend never to get anything done. And if I go back to work on that project I have new inspirations or creative drives that causes me to toss out whatever it was I was tinkering with.

In other words I should jot down notes to how something will look, and record anybuilding progress. It's the same thing with my PA fluff, I generally never commit words to paper.

If I am at work or any were I jot down notes or designs if i am not at my work area. You never know when a idea will jump out and bite u on yr arse lol.

hmm thats a good point lol .

other thing get your self load of cheap pens with a spring in them and use them over plastic rod ? could work but with the thiner plastic rod you get it on just right.

I think using thin electrical wire around a plastic rod would be easier and cheaper...
