[VFB] Re: low cost tying station Under $25)
I recently made a portable tying desk out of my old cabinet fronts. I replaced the kitchen cabinets saved the oak fronts; doors frames. I took one of the smaller doors frames apart, cut the frame so I had a 2 vertical back right side to attach to the door front drilled holes in the side piece for tools. I haven't decided whether I'm going to put dowels in the back for spools or attach a rotating rack for spools dubbing. I drilled two holes in the front edge to attach my Nor vise. Now I can move my operations to the first floor when Marcie has hens over for basket weaving. I'll have a picture of the prototype later.

We rented a motorhome for the trip, had 9 adults on board the two rigs, and we all caught more fish than we could count!

[VFB] Fly tying bench/station
Here are pictures of the converted vanity that i use for my fly tying. I am currently remodeling our craft room so all my fly tying stuff is boxed up or in a travel case, so it looks real clean. The best part that i like about the tying station is the mirror. I can take unique pictures of tied flies. The picture would capture both sides of the fly. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.
