There is your head. Tie that off with a few half hitches, dont worry too much about whip finishers and foofy stuff like that since you're going to epoxy your threads. Finish with head cement or 5, 10, 30 min epoxy (the faster it sets the more yellowing you'll get, beachmaster had mentioned something about using a uv inhibitor in fast curing epoxy maybe that can be used here. Im not sure, give it a whack and let me know). If you go with the epoxy, you'll need to make a spinner for the head to get a nice round head. You can get the motors here:
Fly shops sell these with a switch and a styrofoam circle for like 30 bux. the $2.75 deal is what youre looking for. Grab that up, buy your wife/girl/ flavor of the month a nice flower bouquet. When they die (the flowers) rip out that styrofoam "Thinggie" (thinggie is a technical term) and cut it into a round piece. Take that, round piece and stick it on that motor. Go to home rip off and get an extension cord thinggie for a lamp. Wire that to the $2.75 motor. Make a wicked nice stand for it (you got a shop full of tools), so your styrofoam thinggie can spin free and your tails will spin without hitting the base of your spinner thinggie. Spin til they're dry and you're done.
And thats about it. Again I dont profess to know everything about tying or hair selection etc etc. This is how I was taught and I figured it may help someone out. There are some VERY talented tyers here John K., OJ, Scott B., Andrew, Nib ties a mean tail too, these guys come to mind immediately, and I welcome them to chime in with any corrections or points for improvement.
