    Last,
    I am told that you must use silk tying thread which holds the wax. I got a bunch from Stockard's and it works well.
    I got my tying block through a suggestion on this site......from Dette's via internet. There are a couple sources for the blocks that I have seen. I think if you just do a search for "dubbing loop wood blocks"....or something similar.
    Hope that helps!!

    sort of a sacrilege,but I used the method to tie a bi-color X-Caddis..............
