The weight is probably my fault. The dubbing brush maker was pretty heavy.

It's coming your way Flybugpa
Leaving shortly for the Post Office. I have taken the following ( which I am donating to the Beginners Boxes that I have been collecting for: )
1 Ostrich Plume
5 floss/threads
1 FL Yellow Mallard Flank
1 FL Chartreuse Mallard Flank
1 FL Yellow Marabou
1 FL Chartreuse Marabou
1 Reinhold Hackyl Foldyr
2 pairs of Basic Scissors
I removed the wooden Dubbing winding tool, it just weighs too much ( approx 2 lbs ).
I have transferred everything into a new box, ( 12 X 14 X 14 ) aired the box out over the weekend and removed the 2 bags of moth crystals. I have added the following to the box:
1 - White Rabbit Pelt
1 - Beaver Fur
1 - XL Llama Hair
1 - Tan Synthetic Fly Fur
2 - #7 Pale Watery Dun, Hoffman Hen Saddles
1 - Pronghorn Hair
1 - Fisher Tail
Thank you Popperfly for hosting this swap. This box has a little bit of everything, so folks will surely find something that they can use.
