Your so right, she went skiing with the grand kids last week and I got to stay home and tie flies uninterrupted in a quiet house. The real highlight though was getting to leave the toilet seat up all week! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2021 We have cats who like to jump up on the toilet seats when we walk into the bathroom. We BOTH put the seats down, so they won't fall in when it's not. It's such an ingrained habit now, I even put it down when I'm alone in the hotels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Mike knowing how most cats feel about water I would say that's a mistake they would only make once. 😂 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He would come running in after he heard the water stop running. Once he came darting in, cleared the tub wall, to find a nice warm bath drawn up which he was diving into head first. 😂 He is a lot more careful on his approach now.

Since I have the room to myself, I really needed things organized. You accumulate a lot of stuff in 60+ years of tying. Thanks MikeMac1! I envy you! WOW 60 yrs of bliss! I wish I had that many years, I'm only 73! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DFoster 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2021 Finally! It only took 3 years but my wife found a flat file cabinet for tying material storage and I didn't need to sell my fly rods to pay for it. There are 20 drawers, the dimensions are 12" wide x 19" long and 2.5" deep which is perfect for my needs. It seems to have been made in the 50's or 60's. Maybe used by a watch or jewelry maker? The finish is beat up so we are in the process painting it black which to match our office furniture. I will post pics of it when it's finished and in place. Anyone who has shopped for one of these things knows how expensive most of them are. This one was on face book market place, listed for $340 and was located 1 hour away. My current material storage is a travel trunk packed with plastic totes which are packed with plastic baggies. It can take some digging to locate materials sometimes, this cabinet should be the solution. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
