Me and the whip finisher finally settled our differences.
I'm not fast but at least I'm not fussing at it. I watched fly tying 101 part 5 several times
Figured out what i was doing wrong with the marabou. I started using small feathers which were just the right size. When i used a large feather it wadded up. I realized i should tear off just what was needed. I have a lot of materials on the way including a new pedestal Peak rotary vice![]()
I've got chenille's, threads, fluorescent marabou , hen necks, ostrich feathers, glow powder paints , terminal tackle , jig heads holographic eyes and etc, on the way.
I had been using heavy white quilting thread. When I got to the end I'd just Color 3to 4 inches with the proper color spike it garlic pen or fluorescent permanent marker. It works fine but has limitations. I'm sure I'll have enough to keep me busy till April.
FIN
