As far as that goes I have attached my fingers to coffee stirrers with hot glue.

For that application, I find that super glue can't be beat.  Also less painful.

I too use it for clump foliage and tree armatures. I have also experimented with it for water effects, using clear plastic so I can peel off and use. It will work, but I need to improve my handling first.

Should that happen the Missus would be - how do you say - over the moon! I suspect that she
would be willing to, As Eleanor said in Lion in Winter, "shatter the commandments on the spot".  :)

Gosh, that's just made me realise I haven't seen The Lion in Winter since I was 22 and I'm now 64.
