The gorilla suit rings a bell, but I can't seem to get a handle on it?
Refresh my memory, please.

No ... not If you're going to use them for tying flys ...
usually breathables with neoprene bootys are far more
comfortable for that.


Steve (Of course you need oversize slippers/loafers ...)

Steve have you tried tyin' in scub gear, yet? I do some of my
best tyin' in a gorilla suit, course it comes with its own feet
included.

Op --Hodgeman's bought at www.wouldburnersoutflitters.con
suck--


Masks are a bugger to keep clear and what with wearing the hood 'n
all I could miss the dinner bell which means I may go hungry, or
more likely I'll cop a whack over the nadget for not paying
attention.
Gorilla suit sounds like a plan though ... should be easy to find
dubbing.

I just sat down at the tyin' table and found that both my clear and
black head cements have practically dried up.

....I never use head cement. I either use nothing at all (other than
thread)
or I use CA glue, as above. CA glue, when properly prepared with
a thin Teflon tube dispenser, will last for 6 months or more, and
seldem--if ever--clog up. I use thin ZapCA for thread wraps
and the thicker ZapAGap for everything else.

I just sat down at the tyin' table and found that both my clear and black
head cements
have practically dried up. I had noticed that the clear appeared to be
evaporating,
but didn't realized that it had lost it's liquidity (don't know if this is
this even
proper use of the word). Both cements are hard or at the very least too
thick to use.

Is there any thing that I can do to reconstitute the cements--paint
thinners, varsol?

Mark, I have completely gone over to Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails for my
head cements. Inexpensive and comes in colors, but I confess to using only
clear. I know this is not what you asked but I wanted to jump in with
something to contribute.
