Fly tying work areas ....

[JimCanuck 0]

I'll start ...

 

 

Originally made this as a desk organizer on a sunny Saturday afternoon, however need more room for fly tying materials, and this was half empty so I moved everything from the drawers to the old fly tying plano case I was using, and I moved all the fly tying gear into it. Forgot to put in the one drawer (holds paints and epoxies now) in before the picture woops!

 

Before anyone asks, the table top area the vice is connected to can go out another 6" without losing its balance so it makes a good work surface.

Jim - that's a nice box. Does it fold up/close for transportaion as well?

 

Hairstacker - I'm jealous of the cleanliness and organization of your tying area!

 

Mine is a pit. I'll try to get it cleaned tonight up and take a pic later...

gpd4, thank you for your very kind comment regarding its cleanliness and organization. According to my wife, sometimes it gets completely out of control:

I was originally going to do that, but then decided against it, as I really had no plans to move it around.

Very nice set up. I have a roll top desk I am going to do a similiar set up with. Once I have it set up (hopefully this weekend) I will post a picture.

If you're wondering why you haven't had that many responses, this subject has been done more times than I can remember. Type fly tying bench into the search bar and you'll see a lot of ideas.

Never hurts to do it again for us newbies to show off what we got.

This is mine. I can sit in my favorite chair and wrap in front of the TV. I'm currently wrapping a bamboo rod right now.

Sometimes people just want to start a conversation. And by the way, you guys are all too neat. My tying area looks like a bomb went off.
