The Norvise is permanently attached to my fly tying station, and I use the Renzetti for traveling. Regardless, I still have to make the rope and I just do not like to do it. But, just for you, I will acquiesce and try it on the Norvise. I'll get some new herl too. The stuff I have looks good, but breaks too often. Fly tying is supposed to be fun.
