Default First Bugbond Buzzers.....

What a fantastic product Bugbond is! Been resisting for a while, but finally gave in an ordered from Toby at Funkyflytying earlier in the week and it promptly arrived for some weekend experimentation. I have a new born baby so fly tying time seems to have disappeared, however I had a half hour today and found out that's all you need, wish I'd have purchased sooner.

Here are a couple of Buzzers I tried, the control you get is superb. Was especially good for glueing around breathers where you could cure it in stages.

Also loving this fine Hends wire from Phil at the Fly Tying Boutique, got it in a load of colours so need to find some more tying time Need to experiment more with finding the right colour to put up the leading edge of the quill.

Here's another experiment that I'm looking forward to trying at Grafham, its a kind of crunchery thing.

Class buzzers ,think in a few years I to may go the glue buzzer route ,seen to be stuck in a herl buzzer phase .
aty least it is a move along from the floss buzzers of the Dick walker era.
