Love seeing everyone else's set ups and I think many others do as well. Please post a pic if you haven't already! Same here- Check out the “My fly bench” tour videos Tyers post on YouTube. Everything thing from tying stations that set in your lap all the way to entire rooms built around a vise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fly art work are illustrations from an old book called "Blacker's the Art of Fly Making" available for free on line. The link is below. I simply printed some of the plates on our printer at the office and matted and framed them. The mat and frames came from Michael's- The dockside artwork is actually a real drawing I bought from a street artist in Portland Maine. It's amazing to me that guy drew that scene with pencils. http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/35752 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What vise are you tying on? I first thought it was a peak, but then I knew it wasn't! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikemac1 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2021 Dyna King Barracuda Indexer. Had it since the late 1990s. Re the storage system. Since I have the room to myself, I really needed things organized. You accumulate a lot of stuff in 60+ years of tying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be nice for you to join us so we could get to know you and enjoy your posts more! You apparently like, use and enjoy tying more than most of us anyway! Many tight lines! Be safe and stay warm! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I somehow lost all my old posts when the site went down so had to re-join and sort of started over. Will is going to try to re-connect me with all of my old posts (over 1000 posts as I recall) but hasn't got to it yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although recently I bought some more pheasant tails and had to chop them in half to get them to fit. Most things don't take up a lot of room. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I started tying 16 yrs ago when my wife had a very rare and aggressive cancer! Tying kept me sane and got me through her terrible illness. I did lose her, but again Tying got me through it! Then a few years ago my health went very far south, I sold all my fly gear including tying stuff! Now I'm just getting back into both fishing and tying! I have most of my fishing stuff, now I'm trying to get all my tying stuff back! I guess that's why I envy all your tying materials and tying area! I decided even if I can't fish I can tie! I NEED that so much! Dave many tight lines! Stay warm and safe! Btw, where is your Home Waters? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
