A Trio of Tips

    1. Those UHU glue sticks work even better than dubbing wax. Plus the turn-to-dispense tubes are very well designed.

    2. I put tiny magnets in each hole of my hook storage box. This keeps them all clumped together and tends to prevent hooks from migrating to other slots in the box. These tiny ones are the best:

    3. Install your lead wire in a bobbin like thread. It makes it easier to wrap around hooks and avoids lots of waste, because what you cut off remains on the bobbin. ~ Migs
