    I only have two things to say:
    1. I do mine entirely differently.

    I like that vise that is great... I'll have to put it on my wish list, but would probably end up spending the money fishing instead lol

    You Do know that adding scent to flies is illegal in some places, right?

    I use an o-ring pick. It gets a bit long on occasion, and you have to make sure the open side is facing the direction your winding, but it works, and I already had it.

    Ok, heres 2 pictures of the joberdo made from stuff in the junk drawer... the holder is an inverted medicine cup with the bottom cut off then the top was closed off to become the bottom then painted... the dubbing twister/spinner is a simple ceramic cabinet knob with a hook screw in the backside and a wire connecter added to the front fer easy spinning or twisting...
