Default Snowbee ar vice head attachments

I've been given one of these snowbee vice but there was only one attachment with it and the part that holds the fly in place is missing.
Does anyone have any of these laying around or can you point me in the right direction to where I can source some.

Cheers

Do you mean the wire that holds the hook ?

If im right.. Their actually made out of guitar strings (size unknown)... Maybe a trip to your local music/guitar store?

I had one of these vices a while back, but have none of the wires left.

If thats the case then give me a shout as I play guitar and could give you a string or 2 sent 1st class. Got some high quality strings here there is one missing in the set so no good to me. Let me know if you want them and I'll send the plain wire ones as the wrapped ones are no good unless unwound.

Bruno,

ive got some wires left but id love new jaws
