Putting Together the Stick
Every great journey begins with a Stick.
Getting a Reacher Grabber
You can buy a reacher grabber online, just be careful to buy the "suction cup" style reacher grabber instead of any other kind. We generally like the Vive brand ones, but this is a simple enough tool that not much can go wrong.
Here are a couple of sample links:
Attaching heat shrink
First, remove the existing suction cup tips from the grabber
Silicone tips
Instructions
Attach the 2 pieces of the mold together
Stire each compound within its container
Mix together a small amount of each part in equal volume
Pour the mixed silicone compound into each hole in the mold (8 of them)
Wait until the silicone cures, then remove the tips
