Thread: Magic Tool - Reality Check

    I got a MT as a gift. I would say my use has decreased over the last week or so, but that is only because I recently saw Marty Bartholowew demonstrate his method of dubbing (which is no doubt the easiest, fastest, and most effective way to dub in my opinion). I really like some of the flies I've tied with the MT, and would most likely buy one if it had not been givin as a gift.

    Hi group,

    I got my Magic Tool from Marc a couple of years ago when they introduced it on the market. Quite frankly I use it a lot because it works better than the heavy/black paper clips I had used in the past. Is it worth the price? Only you can answer that question. It certainly is for me. Good luck & ...

    I thought it was a big joke at first, but after seeing it used a couple times, then borrowing a friends I changed my mind. Its a neat little tool system. IMO, the clip he calls "the table" is what makes the system. Its much better than a binder clip. I havent bought one yet though. Cheers.

    I much prefer the system Bob Gaston, from Lebanon, Missouri sells.

    Of course in the Ozarks, you take an original product, convert and adapt it; you don't "invent".

    I have both, Bob's works easier for me, and is MUCH less expensive.
