nomad 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2006 Hey Threader, I think you missed my reply, I am tying a dragonfly variation or a catapillar, and an orange stonefly would be cool, thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kc9fau 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2006 I decided to take the day to get some supplies, make some tools and practice. I have my nine beetles done. But, it took longer than I expected. If you can PM me your address and I can get them tagged they will go out tomorrow. I should mention that these are some of my first ones and I am still trying to figure this stuff out.

kc9fau 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2006 Those look pretty hot to me! Thanks, I just started working with foam and I am working through a couple other local patterns trying to learn the techniques. The legs are a little weird on some of them, I couldn't get them to lay right, so I switched about half way through them. Tying them on the side instead of across seems to work much better.
