I have read on other boards that people use clear nail varnish, others use tissue paper in the ball joints.

Far over the Misty Mountains cold, To dungeons deep and caverns old. The pines were roaring on the height, The winds were moaning in the night, The fire was red, it flaming spread, The trees like torches blazed with light.

I mean they actually coat the ball joint in clear nail varnish so it is a lil thicker and fits tighter. :)

Well, first you make sure to have the right paper. I suggest Job 1.5's. Then make sure all of the seeds...


Huh, what? Not that kind of joint?


Er... never mind, you didn't see me, I wasn't here!!
