All good points made still. Once you get a little more comfortable with threads, knots and your style try this. An ole boy back when I was a learn told me to pick a jig that is not too complicated but you like. Tie it ten times and when you can do that and they are all the same you got it together. It's kinda crazy haw difficult that was for me but it taught me dexterity and attention to detail. Welcome in to the fun sir.
