you need vise grip and a clamp to hold it to a surface they work great cuz some ot the market vises don't hold the weight well unless you want to spend $$$$ 4 one.
I use flat waxed thread , I'm self taught , set your jig up put a couple of wraps aroud it then start adding hair don't use alot at a time work the hair around the jig to fill it up some flash added is cool to finish it off take some Dacron 8" piece fold in half lay it on wraps then wrap 6 or 10 times and cut thread put through end loop and pull under. when done use Sally Hanson hard as nails clear polish to finish wrap.
also Jigman helped me out when I started
