Default Hard choice to make; late xmas pressie Poll

My aunts going away on holiday over xmas and hasn't got me anything for xmas yet and says that I could pick something, so I have and its tight which one I get so here goes.

1 the Marc Petit Jean Magic Clip tool

2 a nice fancy rite bobbin, maybe the one with the built in half hitch tool although I need it to take gsp threads.

What do you guys think. A poll should get some general consesus

AL

Merry Christmas

Had the M.P. tool , didn't like it & sold it.

Got an early Rite b/h. works fine, but not that keen, only use it for kevlar work as it's a pain to load & set up each time, would I buy another ? I doubt it.

The Vosseler clamp is THE way to go !

I have both the vossler clip and MPJ, i like the MPJ better, you can add dubbing, fold the feathers so you have both sides instead of the just one from the vossler..

But on the other hand if you have a piece of foam and a office paper clip you can easilly make a MPJ tool your self.. The Rite's are nice bobbins....

I don't play any games so couldn't really tell you if the AC game is better then either two fly tying thingies.. I know which i would choose though..
