Part 2

trim mono, elk and hackle stems




measure (shank length) a pair of hackle tips, set convex to convex, tie in, set upright with wraps on either side of base










set dihedral, leaning towards the horizontal, with Figure-8 wraps at wing base




tie in thread loop




tie in hackles




wrap hackles (tried wrapping one at a time - not recommended; also, you want to use hackle with the thinnest stems you can find) up (thorax width) and back down; tie off/trim tips (I should have dubbed the thorax before the hackle; it would have been much easier)
