While you are at Wally World, go ahead and stop by the hardware department and pick up some alligator clips. Typically, these are used to make electrical connections, but today, we are going to make a stronger set of hackle pliers that will make blending materials a breeze. Just insert a bamboo barbecue skewer into the cylinder shaped back of the clips and cut it to size. You're done! Now you have a pair of pliers that can handle multiple materials without letting go or slipping out of the end. I don't know about you, but my conventional hackle pliers don't have a lot of grip to them which renders them all but useless.
