what would happen if i used an old fashion candy stick instead of glue stick ? something that resembles cotton candy i hope !!! ( preferably on a NEW glue gun)

someone try this for me !!

The candy stick wouldn't melt, but it would burn in the glue gun, unfortunately.

In the video: "I think it's amazing that a spider, using only his body, can create geometrically complicated, advanced shapes..."

Female spiders are the main web creators, not the males.

I sortof wanted to try this when I first saw it last year. . . . but this past weekend I saw a similar store bought model at Spirit Halloween Store; for only 50 US Dollars! Now I have no choice but to make one at home. I just hope it works without the seven dollar "web sticks".

this thing is lethal as glue stings you, and if you have one of those really expensive ones that deliver alot of hot glue, you better get scared.
natedawg1013 in reply to knektekOct 11, 2010. 2:53 PM
Just because something stings doesn't mean it's lethal. Also, because of the compressed air rushing by the hot glue, it would be cool before it reaches its target, or at least, almost cool.

Why would you have 3 hot glue guns?
Plasmana in reply to awang8Jan 25, 2009. 1:57 AM
My mom was a crafter years ago, but she stop doing crafting and gave me three hot glue guns...
awang8 in reply to PlasmanaJan 25, 2009. 2:58 PM
So why did your mom have 3 hot glue guns? I'd rather have 1 really good gun than 3 small guns.
Plasmana in reply to awang8Jan 28, 2009. 5:37 PM
I really don't know, I have one high-temp one and two low-temp glue guns.
