Very nice! I mess around with a vertical mill on slow time at work. I love your homemade stuff. Keep up the work. I’m going to make your bobbin holder soon very smart. What is your wire you make the links out of?
Have you tried to o-ring a hook off the front shank instead of embedding the hook in the shank? Just curious if it has too much drag with a dangling hook vs. the embedded one. Great video. Thanks for the content
I do that with some other patterns to get better keel weight. With this one you want as little drag as possible for the glide. So no I wouldn’t do it with the jerkchanger.
@@toddarnold9994 thanks I watched it. We make basically the same brushes I just add a little bit more flash. I have been Trying to find some synthetic material that sheds water a little better.
These are just videos done with the iPhone. Not sure I want to go down the rabbit hole yet with full blown videos. But glad you like what I’ve done so far.
It’s a basspro hook. They have a heavy wire short shank O'Shaughnessy bend hook that I like for rear hooks in changers. The hooks are stout and the length is pretty short making it fit between short shanks well.

Like what you’ve done.
Great video m8!!!
Did you make the vise???
And could you make a video of " the shank making "???
Thanks! And yes, I’m a machinist by trade and have built most of my tying tools.

Thanks man! I use Malin 180# hard wire for some and .035 stainless TIG welding wire for some to have a lot heavier wire.

Which brand fly tying vise is that? thank you
I built it myself. I’m a machinist.
Very impressive looking vise, looks super solid. Great piece of work.
Nice work 👍🏽
Thanks Elton!
What type of brush are you using? In particular what materials I like to make my own.
Look at my other videos. I show making a brush. These are Kanekalon and Bonnie Craft cord.

Awesome video, but please we need a closeup shot of your work.
Good stuff. Like what you are doing with the DIY videos. Keep it up!! Need to work on the editing. ;)

What is the rear hook ?
