    Eyes...ping pongs are too small....

    i've seen those eyes, they are great. although i want them full round, not halfes. I'm just gonna go for the styrofoamballs, and put some shiny glossy on them ;) /Anders

    Eyes...ping pongs are too small....

    Gasket rubber.

    yes, you can do that, but you will not get the bend tha kermit, wembley, red and so many others has in their mouths. That's what gasket rubber is good for ;)
