rewatching this video, and noticed your guinness glass for testing dubbing underwater.
guess i'm having a guinness with lunch today, then. cheers!
Thanks Tim👍☕️☕️
Good advice. thank you Barbie. 😊
I actually consider Guinness a food group. Glad you like the videos.
Very good instructional video.
Thankyou for showing us how to.
Aloha🌴🏄♂️🦐🎣
Glad you like them.
I always enjoy your videos... I especially enjoyed the Guinness glass to test your blend! I'm glad to see you drink good beer too!
I love that you use your whip finisher hook to pull the dubbing out of the container! Haha. I do the same exact thing and always wondered if other people did it. It works so perfectly it's like it was made for it.
thanks for the info. That's the beauty of blending your own dubbing you can get it the way you want it.

Excellent video. I am a strong adept of alternative dubbings and usually mix tapestry natural wool in several colors, the same way you did yours, to make a dense and hydrofilic dubbing in different hues for nymph tying. Congrats and keep the good job on the videos.
I blend everything both underfur, guard hairs and everything in between to form a basic blend whether it's rabbit (from a skin) or material from a full hare's mask. Then, as with the blend in the video, I'll add extra guard hairs (in this case those from the ears) to make the blend more spiky. Hope this answers the question.
Im always excited when you post a new video! Wonderful quality very informative and well put together. Thanks for all you do cause I know it must take a bit of work to make such a wonderful collection!
No, that's about it for now. Hopefully I'll get to add additional information in later videos.
It ends very abruptly, I get the feeling the video was supposed to be somewhat longer.
But still, very informative.
Thank you very much for posting this.
Very informative, keep the tutorials coming please..
Thank you for posting your videos, I really do enjoy them. Can you post one about making a Purple Haze Parachute? I know you've done other parachutes, and the only real difference is the color, but I enjoy they way you guys tie your flies, and I'd love to see your take on the Purple Haze. The Purple Haze is popular on the Crooked River here in Oregon right now.
Probably. I would think angora would jam the coffee grinder so I would cut it up prior to blending it. And antron and other shiny synthetics make for awesome dubbing blends
As Sam said, best to cut them in 1/4 inch lengths or so before blending. Superfine dubbing absolutely needs to be cut but in looks great when mixed with rabbit.
thanks ill have to try it!
this is awesome, would this also work with synthetics and angora?
I really like using thenfur from the cheeks and forehead of a hare's mask
Check thrift stores for used coffee grinders. I picked one up for a couple of bucks and it works great.
I wonder if you mix tiny cuts of all types of fur. I have many different types of fur, all primo because they come from old garments or problem cuts from furrier. I use it all but I never really know what is going to be available. I do mix them all together to get the earthy tones. I do have to use dyed fur to get other colors. I try not to mix synthetic and naturals unless I have a request for shiny, but mostly natural flies. I don't sell them, but I know many tyers. Funny how that happens.Sean
how would you blend it without a coffee grinder?
Poodles come in a variety of colors.
There is a seal between the blades and the bowl. Is gets full of hair and damages the grinder.
Will this make the coffee taste like muskrat? Seriously, I was never very successful at blending in the coffee grinder until I saw this vid.
I watched your video on you Vimeo channel and meant to ask you when you blend your rabbit do you use just the under fur or rabbit guard hairs also with the under fur when you blend the hare's ear ?

I didn't undersood why was need to mix them
how would you make peacock dubbing
I think its made of artificial materials since the flus are too short but I don't know for sure
