Hey Don,

Onderwerp: Re: [VFB] Rotary Hackle Pliers??

 

How did I get into this? Did I miss an email?

But thank you! They are getting harder to see these days. I may have to use my 
glasses one day, or even magnification.

 

I did get a few #32 cree hackles on that midge cree saddle that Dr. Tom sent 
me. They look like multicolor threads until flared.

What a beautifully tied fly. I love seeing them magnified, especially the ones 
tied on size 32 Mustards (I never did find one!).
All hail DonO, master of the micros.

Yup. I have the C&F hackle pliers and they help me tie parachutes when the 
hackle is getting small. Great tool!

Allan give Chuck a break. LOL

A rotary vise is useless for winding parachute hackles. The swivel hackle 
pliers is the way to go on them. That is all I have used for about 25 years. 
The long handle one is the best for that. I can show what I mean at the show., 
Gee now I am picking on you. LOL I am in a good mood this morning.

BTW, the poppers are finished and you can pick them up at the Sowbug.

Well, since Allan reminded me that since I have a rotary vise, in theory I 
already have rotating hackle pliers, and since I hadn’t actually hit the 
“order” button, I just deleted the pliers and jacked up the number of foam 
spider bodies I ordered which I KNOW I use all the time LOL.. Chuck

I can't help but laugh, we have been delicately trying to tell you not to 
bother because we hardly ever use rotary hackle pliers, but you bought both 
sizes anyhow. 

Oh, I'm still laughing 😃

Well, since these are so cheap, ($3.45 and $4.45 respectively) I went ahead and 
ordered two pair as one has a short handle of about 1 1/2” I think and the 
other has a 4 1/2” handle with a built in half hitch tool on the end of the 
handle. Guess it’s the only way I can find out of they are my cup of tea or 
not. My Daddy did a lot of mechanic work his whole life and he used to tell me 
“Son, you can’t have too many tools” LOL.. Guess I’ll find out if he was right. 
In my mechanics tool box and my tool shed, most tools I own I hardly ever use , 
but when I need them I REALLY need them. Thanks to all, Chuck

I have some, rarely use them, but don't usually use this kind of hackle pliers 
tip as I find  it breaks the hackle more often than the standard pliers tips 
that come together.  I think it is just a matter of preference.

Folks: I’m getting a fly tying materials order and have always wanted to try a 
pair of Rotary Hackle Pliers. Do they work  good?? Are they better than regular 
hackle pliers. Only problem I foresee is that after you wrap the hackle, those 
rotary pliers will hang down a lot farther than normal hackle pliers, making 
getting your lock in thread wraps behind the hackle would be harder to do than 
using reg. hackle pliers. Am I missing something there?? Thanks for any pros or 
cons. They are only $3.45 from Stockard, which is the place I’m ordering from, 
but if I’ll never use them, that’s $3.45 I could use on something I will use.
