dental floss
 

i forget who suggested it for tieing up tails and jigs, but who ever it was i owe you a thank you-

I like it much better than thread.

always used the non-waxed kind...ties better then thread cause it's flat.

i use flat waxed monocord- it lies flat, its strong, and because its waxed it holds inplace better while making tight wraps on large clumps of bucktail (or synthetics) i've tried the floss thing and imo it frayed to much

Yeah its great stuff. I use it for a of things, recently sewed up a tear in an old backpack with it while away from home. I use the waxed floss, tougher to use but always felt it would hold up better.

try kevlar with those sausage fingers you got.

Use Zircon encrusted tweezers. BTW there is a nice little article in Yankee Mag. on a glassblower.

Have used that in the past. Only problem is that it has a tendancy to cut the bucktail when you torque down on it.

And always use your lighter to sterilize it:D

Raising my lonely dentail floss

still loving the dental floss :D

when i get a good batch of jigs done i will post a pic.

i use this for whipping offshore connections.
strong as heck, gotta be 4 miles of the stuff on a spool. comes in a dispensor w/ cutter built in.
soaks up glue nice.
