If you just need a few, a super easy way to do it is to simply buy a couple tubes of aquamend. Cut the tubes up into the size of plugs you want and make them with your hand.

Ive never made any frag plugs...i usually just buy them.

some people use plastic golf tees. just glue the frag to them. that way you can also stack them on an egg crate rack to grow.

I have also see the plastic wall anchors used as well. Any hardware store will carry them, but they are often not big enough.
