Nice way of advertising your craft off. When are you joining as a trade member?

Ach yer just showing off thats brilliant

The brass finial is about 3 cm long, goes through the end cap and into the lead plug in the antler, helping to keep the end cap on. And its a distinctive finishing touch.

I see it as no different to other guys showing their flies, (ooer missus) I discussed joining as a trade member but as each one takes up to 4 hours to make, and I turn out a maximum of two of these a week, its not economically feasable.
