I bought his spring loaded dubbing clip kit. I don't use
it a lot, but it's worth having. It does work well
when I do what it does (when I do it?).


It just so happens that the clip kit is why I visited the site yesterday.
I went to visit my buddy at his fly shop to stock up on some hooks, saw the
kit and asked about it ... he offered me 40% off as he'd had it on the shelf
a while, has too much money tied up in inventory, and things are slow right
now for him ...so I bought it along with the other stuff.

Be damned if I can figure how to use it ! I've always wanted to create a
'hackle' mix of dun hackle and sparkle organza for spinner ties and hoped to
pursue that end. I'm downloading some video footage I found showing the
clips in use, as I type this ... maybe that will help ... the tiny pictures
that came with the tool didn't.
