Thanks.
Thanks.
I'm against the tool. But then again, I'm not comfortable using a bobbin, and would never resort to a whip finish tool. I'm also opposed to vises that spin around an axis. Don't like cell phones either.

I went to the ISE earlier this year and watched Kim Boal demonstrate the Magic Tool. I was impressed at the speed in which she can tie a fly with it. After spending a half hour watching her use various methods with the MT I bought one. After about a week of playing with it I can honestly say that the MT is a lot of fun to tie with and my speed at using it has greatly increased.
Trout don't speak Latin.
Ladyfisher: What I would do without the MT is to lay the CDC upon a piece of styorfoam block in which I had already cut a slit. The I would push the CDC into the alone, or with the aid of thread or an old credit card. Then I would grasp the CDC with a cheap binder clip and remove it from the foam, and proceed. The only advantage of the MT is that is is CLEAR plastic, but a little practice should overcome that advantage.
If anyone is interested. Good price and they are very nice people to do business with.
