There's a bunch of cool stuff there that can be applied to fly tying. That photo tent just might have to follow me home!

The flip down magnifiers look promising, too.

This place is like browsing a craft store for fly tying stuff. Yeah, there's a lot of cheap junk, but there's also some legitimate bargains there. Its like a super "dollar store" for guys.
