The second will be a simplified version without the Antron dubbing, to create a simpler tie getting me back on the stream quicker. I have been getting help from some friends with names. The fluffy version reminds me of Phyllis Diller (may she rest in peace) with her hair sticking out all over the place. And the beads on the hook shank remind me of tidbits on a skewer, so... "Shish Kebari", comedy relief, LOL. And the simpler version, simply "Glass Kebari". Thanks for all of your encouragement an interest guys! Jim Wright.
