Chips N Dust Posted August 18, 2016 Report Posted August 18, 2016 This is a little fly tying desk I made for my nephew a few years back and my first attempt at posting pics on this site. The photos look a little fuzzy (I saved them from the WOOD site. Copy of a Copy of a Copy, I guess). Thanks for looking Quote
lew Posted August 18, 2016 Report Posted August 18, 2016 Nice! I had an acquaintance who was into fly fishing. He had me make him a "drying holder". I'm not sure how it worked but it looked like this- Chips N Dust 1 Quote
Chips N Dust Posted August 18, 2016 Author Report Posted August 18, 2016 That is pretty Cool! How it works is that he "hooks" the finished fly into the foam and lets it dry after he puts whatever hardener/lacquer/etc. on it Quote
Chips N Dust Posted August 18, 2016 Author Report Posted August 18, 2016 I also made this for him to hold hooks, eyes, beads, whatever... Quote

Are the holders you made mounted on Lazy Susan bearings? I used a 3" lazy susan bearing under it, believe I got it from Rockler. The screw together plastic containers I got at Sportsman's Warehouse (probably any sporting goods and other places would have them. I designed the inside height so that you have to lift the plastic containers up and out, BUT when you spin the whole thing, the containers will tip out and hang up on the top but not fly out. Quote
