Rotating vices


Start  Truly rotating  Advantages  Techniques
This section of Tie Better will deal with rotary fly tying vices. I will try to explain what a true rotary vice is, what its advatnages are and how it can be used in different steps of fly tying.

The section will be divided into several sections:

  1. A true rotary vice
  2. Advantages of rotary vices
  3. Some tying techniques for rotary vices
Pamola vice
The Pamola vice takes rotation
a bit further, but has some limitations
regarding access behind the hook.
