HOW MUCH TO HAVE VICE AND BOBBIN SET SENT TO NEWFOUNDLAND CANADA

[goodfly1]

THE GREATS VISE I HAVE EVER SEEN . WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO TRY IT OUT FOR MY SELF, BUT IT IS MAYBE A LITTLE TO RICH FOR MY BLOOD , BUT A GREAT VICE. LOVE IT . WOW

[degnbol1608]

looks so easy when you do it!! :)

[solamisandwich05]

hello, I'm having trouble pulling the ext body section off the needle. The things just seem to disintegrate. I don't use nor so I'm waxing the dubbing onto thread and then wrapping around the moose fibers... or should I go buy some dubbing tools? Ps: Good video! reminds me of norm from Old Yankee Workshop :)

[Droan42]

I nearly gave up on the nor-vice system until I came across the Extended Body Mayfly Dun, Wow, what a doddle.

I shall persevere & hope to master your system for all flies.

Grailing at the moment.

[mrflydog]

[MrTruthhurts777]

Damm you Norm !!!

I was very happy with my Thompson A 360, Then I had to watch this Video %$#%^&

Then I went to your web site %*() My wife is going to hate me and you !

Your Vice and accessories are more like art. They are wonderful !

The idea of keeping the hook shank inline with the vice is so nice, Then when you spun the jaws of the Vice I had to go to your web site to see if there was some kind of motor in the vice . Thank you for a wonderful "System"

Oh the Gallows,, Very good idea,

[platter4]

that is a very nice tool and it makes some tying more realistic, and more appealing to fish. but there is one simple trick that you forgot. if you wrap the paracute the other way then you can wrap with the hackle and not tie any fibers down

[WEESTRAWZ]

thats a stunning looking fly there mate!

well done!

Might need to gte me self one of those beautiful vices.

Thanks for posting!

[sharktoothhntr]

[jaegermann]

Wow, Thanks for that video. Great demonstration of how to do it right and make a GREAT Mayfly. I love the extended body technique, and now know exactly which rotary vice I will be getting !!! I am new to fly tying so this was perfect.

[tubasteinar]

Hi Norm, great technique extending a body. I´ll adopt it and do the rest of the fly with CDC...
