I like it.

On the "refinishing old silk fly lines" section I particularly liked the line "Boil up some linseed oil, and when it has cooled....".

Easier by far just to buy boiled linseed oil - cheap too. I'm also unsure about how soapy water is going to penetrate an old line dressing, even if it is left to soak for a whole day.

The museum idea is good though, and some of the other content looks interesting.
