Tip of the day...get the foam board at the Dollar Store...for you guessed it...$1.00. That's what I do and it is the same as you will get at any of the office supply places.

DarrellP 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2020 Fly Tier, that is about how my desk looks after I have cleaned it. I like your set up. I had heard that a matt green desk was the ticket. I think I read that in AK Best's book. Anyway, great set up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The scissors are Dr. Slick "Bent Shaft Scissors" and for me at least...once I started using them I rarely use anything else. I have both the small arrow point and the heavier standard point versions. Well worth the money👍👌 Thank you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dave 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2020 Salarman That's a great looking old Gerstner chest you've got. Current prices on those are out of sight. I have one just like yours but only five drawers. New price on it is $1245. I got mine at a public sale years ago for $15. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
