Over years of building custom glass rods, I have accumulated MANY butt section cutoffs from blanks. Thankfully I have always thrown them in a drawer knowing one day I’d have an idea of something to do with them. The result are these custom fly tying/dubbing needles and whip finishers. Each is a one off w/ individually turned and fit brass hardware, signature, and varnish overcoat. Packaged in an adorable (my wife’s words…) pillow box and including 2 extra needles. Needles are easily swapped w/ some heat at the tip of the brass to soften the epoxy. These are heavy and feel great in hand. 100% unnecessary but 100% cool and something to enhance your fly tying enjoyment!
ADDED FOR 2019 – I recently starting making, at customer requests, a dubbing brush w/ an interchangeable head for different brush attachments. The brush is $65 and includes 2 brush heads (a course nylon and a fine bronze). I will build up a few for inventory but can accommodate specific requests if you have one.
