Spoon fly template cutter?

[s1rGr1nG0]

Does anyone know of a place where I can get a punch or some other cutter to use for a spoon fly template? I have some rolls of holographic tape in various colors that I want to use for some epoxy spoon flies. I've seen the premade sheets from Creative Feathers but I would rather make my own. I do have a paper punch that I bought from a scrapbooking site and the pattern is a balloon. It seems to work fairly well but I would rather locate one that has "tabs" on both ends for tying to the hook since the ballon only has a tab on one end and I have to glue/cement the other end. (if that makes sense)

I've also tried just cutting it with scissors but I can never get it to look right.

Maybe this guy can help:

just scroll down a bit

I made some spoon flies using wire frame and filled with epoxy; they came out okay and wobbled pretty true.

Would it work to take a finished fly and push it into some silly putty? Then you have a mold to work from...

I would try River Road Creations, as they make all kinds of cutters for fly bodies: riverroadcreations.com. Or simply Google for them.

Funny you should say that. I contacted one of the folks at one of the links provided above. That person told me the same thing. I've emailed River Road Creations and they got back to me. It looks like they will have no problems creating the cutter for the bodies.
Thanks for the replies everyone!
