Thanks Skip. Can the material withstand a little heat from a heat gun? I use an electric paint stripper on low power to shrink tubing. I am not a jig maker by no means. I have lots of jig heads and tubes, etc. that I have won on c.com and also many given to me from folks here on c.com. I have a lifetime supply, but I never turn down a gift. It is an honor to be recognized by the good folks on c.com.
