spare link Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 My brother wanted to start to tie jigs with me so i made him a bobbin. It is not the best thing, but i tied a little with it and it seens to work very well. it is a little hard to make the pressure on the thread the right amount but we final got it. so what do you think.

badfish03 Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Looks quite servicable Link. What kind of thread are you guys using on the jigs? Materials? Inquiring minds want to know. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIGMAKER Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Is the tube glass or plastic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spare link Posted February 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 badfish03, i use mostly Schlappen and marabou for feathers. I will some times use pipe cleaner, chenille, beads, ect. for body. I use fly tying thread, mostly what ever is cheap at the store. JIGMAKER, it is a plastic tube. I got it from a old mechanical pencil. Wraped moms old sewing thread and epoxyed it toughter. spare link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
