Been there done that, it was not what I had wanted. Good idea for those that do not know about it. Tony

It is handy for carrying a lot of different colors tor traveling.. Looks like Wapsi has them and Nick found them in Bozman for 6.00. It has 30 compartments.

My one came together with a dubbing dispenser, to pull out the dubbing through the holes on the back of the compartments. /Nick -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com [mailto:vfb-m...@googlegroups.com] För Anthony Spezio Skickat: den 8 februari 2010 18:36 Till: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Ämne: [VFB] Knotted legs I was asked about making Knotted Legs on another list. Thought it might start a tread on this list so I am posting a part of the message I sent -Took these this morning, The feather is a beat up Pheasant tail feather so the legs are not the best, it is just what I had right here. This is how I make my Knotted Legs # 1 Feather held in the vise. # 2 Make a loop around the Knipicker shaft # 3 Catch the tag end and pull it through the loop, this makes an overhand knot. # 4 Knotted leg # 5 Two Knotted Legs # 6 Three Knotted Legs Removed from Quill # 7 Knitpicker and Knotted Legs. I was also asked if I sprayed the feather first. In this case I did not but I do at times. Here is that reply Another list member asked if I sprayed the feather first, here was my reply to him. I sometimes coat them with a fixative that is used for spraying over pencil drawings but not always. It can be done either way. Spraying them makes it easier to separate the barbs for making the knot. The Knit Pickers I was getting then in the Sewing Dept at Wally World for 99 cents. I think they went up to 1.09.00 now. I also use the for weaving the Knitpikin Mayfly tail and body that I have on my tying DVD. Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
