Fly Tying room

[James Smith]

This is "sort of" fly tying related. I'm in the process of moving and all my gear is packed up. I've been looking for a nice piece of furniture that I can use for storing material that matches my oak roll top desk. I came across this antique hardware solid oak storage Lazy Susan made in 1901. It's 24" across and 38" tall. It has 40 drawers that are 5" wide and 6" tall. Half of the drawers are 12" long and the other half are about 6" long. It has casters on it now, but I've ordered a super heavy duty Lazy Susan hardware that I will install. It should make beautiful addition to my new tying room. I kind of pumped up about this beauty so I thought I'd share it. it. Lazy Susan Storage.JPG

That's a great find. Putting it on a lazy susan turret is a good idea. You might want to also add some natural cedar to the bottom of the drawers you put feathers in. Some places sell thin cedar planking for lining closets to prevent moths.

That is a thing of beauty and a joy to behold. Those pieces are a rare find and will make sitting at the tying table even more nostalgic.

It's really neat Jim and, knowing your creative talents, you'll make it even better. Great find!

My wife just asked me if I was feeling well. She said I looked an odd shade of green!

Really nice!

Thank you all for the kind words. I'll post a photo when I have my new tying room all set up.

Actually, when we lived in Miami in the early 70's there was one time that it got cold enough to snow (sort of). I happened to be out early enough that morning and when I looked up at the streetlight, you could see the occasional snowflake drifting down and some of them actually hit the ground but melted in just a few seconds. Here's a photo out the back door of the new house. Hopefully, I will never see it covered with snowBack Yard.jpg
