Charlie Franklin 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2009 Hey all I have been looking around at all your fly tying desk,etc. I thought I would show you what my Dad and younger brother made me for my addiction. My Bro (13 Years old) turned me the dishes on a wood lathe (He has his own little business called pens by daniel) the dishes have rare earth magnets in them. My dad made the tool caddy and vise pedastool out of spalted birch. He also made me the fly boxes. He is working on a fly tying desk, with a spalted maple top Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlwebb 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2009 Very nice, you are a lucky fellow. I need to make myself a tool caddy like that, I am getting tired of finding my wax stuck to something, and hunting for a particular spool of thread. Michael Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scud 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2009 Man, that is some sweet stuff. That pen is great. How much for a pen? How is the base for the vise? Is that a cover? That's a talented family. Jeremy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie Franklin 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks for all the kind remarks. The base is awesome. It actually is made from spalted birch and it has a cork base to stop it from sliding( not a cover) The pen is 60 dollars My dad is actually a custom cabinet builder by trade and he is starting fly flishing line of furniture. ( he makes desks, bookcases,etc.) Charlie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
