Mono Eyes?

Okay, I know how to make mono eyes for my crab patterns, but I was wondering if any had any ideas on how to speed up the process? (without resorting to buying or hairbrushes)

Thanks!

Re: Mono Eyes?

I got this off a post some years ago. Go to a dollar store and get a round ladies hair brush....before buying, be sure it has little rounded knobs on the end of the bristles and be sure when you look at the end of the bristle sticking in the handle and be sure you can see a little end at the very base sticking in the hole beside the bristle shaft.....when you take a pair of needle nose pliars and pull them out of the brush there should be a little hook bend in the plastic making an anchor for the bristle. I use the rounded end sticking out for crab and craw eyes and use the hooked end to tie on tube insert hooks for hooking on grubs as a bait keeper onner...ahem.
