Grafting supports

Thought this deserved a new thread.
For stocks > 5mm diameter, I use double sided tape (1" lengths) on the 4 sides of the stock pot. I then stretch 2 strips of ladies tights material over the top of the stock and press it into the tape. I then put an elastic band, or some sellotape round the pot, as ocassionally, the tight material detaches itself from the tape.
For seedlings, i use two section of plant label stuck together, so as to give a flexible joint. One end has varying amounts of money (er - that would be coins) attached to it, to act as a weight.
A bit of a faff, but it works well for me!
