An answer to one of my questions. The Lisa Pavelka resin works great. It is thicker than SHHAN but not overly so. I took a fly I had tied and had not used any head cement and using a bodkin put a coat around the whip finish, stuck it in a cork and set it out on the bbq grill in the bright sun. Hardened up wonderfully. There was a thread end sticking out and I used my rough scissors to trim it. Now I have to wait for the UV light to get here from China - untill then, I will just sun cure the flies.
