Pimp my Flytying Desk

Recommended Posts

Guest Big E

The wife pimped my flytying desk for my birthday and got me an Ott light with magnifier. This thing is pretty sweet...nice magnification and an easy-on-the-eyes light that doesn't get hot. Hobby Lobby had both the light and magnifier on 40% discount.

Nice Ed,

 

all you need now are some 21 inch rims and some bling off the old vice!

 

Beauty station you got there, im coming over to break it in for you.

Hi Big E,

 

That is an awesome looking setup. You must be really pleased with it. On the other hand I'm with Mick, how are you keeping it so nice/clean? Gretchen and I keep a pretty neat tying area but it certainly doesn't measure up to yours! Take care & ...

Military training and perhaps a touch of OCD. :P I just can't stand a messy desk. All my materials are stored in plastic containers in my drawers and I take out what I need for a tying session and then after, I put it away. :blink:

 

Here's a bigger pic of my entire desk w/my old lamp.

That's a great looking tying space and a fantastic new lamp.

 

What do you think it is that she's after?... ;)

lol Dave...we're on the same wavelength.

 

The weekend after she bought me the lamp we were in the mall and she stopped by the jewelery store "to have a look." Its our 20th anniversary this summer so it was kinda funny she went straight to where the 1ct diamond solitares were.

Nice set up Big E.

Did you make the holder for your spools?

I really need one of them.

Nope....$5 at Wally World.

 

I'd rather have something like this though:

Nice set up Big E.

 

I have a light and magnifier like that one. Now you have no excuse, you need to tie up those #22, #24, and #32 midge flies. You got the light and you got the magnification. The way I see it, your wife wants you to tie more flies and go fishing more often.
