Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making

2017-04-03 Thread DonO
I’m going to work on making the video more entertaining than a normal tutorial. 
 That means a lot of clips of the materials and tools used, comparing them to 
normal.  Then I’ll have section of the actual tie.  Since the tie itself is not 
practical for most tiers, I would think entertainment is the ultimate goal. And 
it’s even very hard to get ahold of the hooks these days. I’ll make sure the 
video clips migrate time to time to me tying without glasses or a magnifying 
glass just for proof of naked-eye tying.  A few years more and I’ll probably 
need a magnifying glass to tie these.

Thread check. I would not know what denier this is, but it’s close to 50/0 
denear as I can tell.  The hand-selected thread I use is so fine that one 
12”+/- strand of it floats up and away and disappears in a couple of seconds, 
like real baby-spider float-silk strands.  I sent Hans some awhile back.  It’s 
from a clothes-line that was clear tube over a spun multi-filament core.  I 
hope to be able to show all of this on the video, if I can still find a piece 
of the clothes-line in my stock-piles. The bobbin looks like it is hanging in 
space unless the light shines off of it just right.  My camera can catch it, 
don’t know if the video camera can. 

I’ll try to mix some humor in also, as I am want to do.  AAMOF, a fishing 
sequence with me catching a small trout on a #32 dropper would be sweet.  A #32 
Copper John would be the ticket for a dropper.

Can't wait to see the video, Don. I have a couple spools of the UNI-Caenis 
thread. Label says it is a 20 denier thread and is really fine. I've only ever 
tried tying with it a couple times and it is quite fragile. Cudos to you Don

Can't wait to see the video, Don. I have a couple spools of the UNI-Caenis
thread. Label says it is a 20 denier thread and is really fine. I've only
ever tried tying with it a couple times and it is quite fragile. Cudos to
you Don for tying at both extremes of the size scale.

I am sure that you have a much lighter touch then me. I am too heavy with my 
pressure and no matter how I try I still break the Guedebrod, even when I take 
it off the spools and use a regular bobbin?

  I've used caenis thread on

 those (in

 you

I also should have mentioned that the Veveeus?12/0 is still stronger then 
the Guedebrod 10/0.

Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making

2017-04-03 Thread Alan Di Somma
When I fished the San Juan River in New Mexico a couple of years back I brought 
my tying stuff and tied some 28 and 30’s.
I had Bennecci 16/0 and I liked it better then the Guedebrod 10/0 which I 
thought broke too easily. Never did like that Guedebrod.

Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making

2017-04-03 Thread Niclas (Gmail)
I started to "make" my own thread for flies smaller than #26. Picked out a
few filaments from a piece of GSP thread, waxed, twisted and put it on a
little spool. That was TRUE spiderweb... à la super strong. Using that on a
video it would look like the fly was tying itself while you were just
moving your hand around it.  ;o)

I tyed mine with 10/0 Gudebrod. Too bad they don't make  any more. It was a 
finer thread than the 14/0 thread that I once had. This hook is real small, it
