It makes a huge difference in the finish and how it is done so we don't need new people buying a kit that has a whip finish tool that will not work on what they are doing.

If in fact you use a Thompson style on jig heads please show us all how that works for you.

Please look at what I am talking about before you try and correct.

Yes the kind in the picture~ I use that one in the picture. Never had a problem. I looked at what you were talking about - you are wrong my friend they will work on jigs. I have tied thousands with that kind of finish tool in th picture. Maybe I need to show you how. Just because you sell a few jigs on a crappie forum does not make you the lone authority.
