RangerBob Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 It's tough enough to get new patterns never mind new people to tie. DanSharing new techniques and even old school methods (like deer hair spinning) are always great too. I recently got a DVD from a friend Don Ordes for Christmas that I am reviewing for his website. The DVD has been 8 years in the making and he is currently working on a 2nd follow-up DVD here in the next 6 months. Perhaps once I have mastered the technique myself I may show it off to you all... when you are ready for it. Mind blowing it is. This technique does not use split thread, loops, wire, nor does it involve a dubbing spinner, and you can dub hackle and fur at the same time. Try and wrap your head around that one now.
