C&F Design body tool.

[Longsider]

Does anybody own and use the C&F Design extended body tool?

I've been weighing up whether to buy for a while, I have taken the plunge today and parted with my cash, just wondered if anyone could pass on any tips?

Cheers

Never used one, but I would be interested in what you find out about the tool. I have looked at that tool as well as the gallows tool for making parachutes. I did not buy either of them, but I always wondered how well they would work. Please pass on your findings

The instructions aren't brilliant, feel that some of it is lost in translation. Had a play last night, made a body with a dubbing thread as shown, seemed to lack a bit of strength. However have made a few more and let them dry out fully overnight, also dipped them in the cement again this morning and they look quite good. Going to tie them on later this evening and will come back and let you know. Would still like any tips if anyone else has used on, dammned secondary needle is really sharp, as I found out to my cost....! Impressed upto now though and given time and practice this winter I'm sure it'll be money well spent.
