Re: [VFB] Sparrow

2013-05-31 Thread Hans Weilenmann
Henk already addressed your question. Most tying threads split readily. A
notable exception is Uni-thread, which is 'bonded' thread - a resin is
incorporated with the filaments, essentially glueing them together into a
'round' thread. The bond can be broken, with nail-edge pressure for
example, but certainly is not the easiest thread which comes to mind when
planning to do split thread techniques ;-)

My staple thread is Benecchi 12/0 (also available in 6/0, 8/0, and 10/0) -
I find it consistent, quite strong. and it twists and untwists/flattens -
key characteristics for doing split thread - very easily.

Cheers,
Hans

 This came in from the Catskill Fly Tyers Guild site, we are about 5 hours

 It was he who invited Deb Duran and myself to the first Clearwater
 Junction show in Roscoe, NY I think in 2004, and this lead to many other
 fly tying events for us.

 There are a lot of guys who had disagreements with him, BUT he did what
 most folks dream of doing in a short retirement, they traveled the globe to
 fly tying events for about 5 years. That is something not many of us will
 do in a lifetime of trying, and he drove to all the domestic shows, over
 100K miles in one year!




 It is very sad to inform you that my husband, Mark Jonathan Romero, was
 passed away at 7:38 pm, March 18th.

 He was a very unique artist and we shall not see like him again.

 My mailing address is

 Lakeview, AR 72642

 Mark instruct me to spread his ashes to Willowemoc Creek. I am planning to
 go up there in the second weekend of May.

 Sincerely,
 Misako Ishimura

 you always tie it in wide end first or narrow end first? Inquiring minds
