D.I.Y Fly Tying Station/Bench, Part 2. Finished shop made station for fly tying

[@HeartlandMakesAndOutdoors]

Mike, I love the fact you shared your grandfathers flies with us. I am currently building a fly tying station for our shop. I too have some of my grandads old lures etc. I have made a spot in my station, that I used a router to make a small circle in the wood, put one of his lure in it, and just finished pouring the last tope coat of epoxy to finish it off. I think it will turn out nicely. I do have some air bubbles in the edges, hopefully I can sand them out, not sure, I am still new to working with epoxy. Great job on this station sir, it looks pretty sweet and rwill be greatly organized. I dont like looking for tools, so organized is a great option. Thanks agian for taking the time to share this with us. I am more of a crappie and panfish fisherman being in East Texas, so even though it is not true trout fishing fly fishing, but I love to fly fish out of my kayak, so that is part of what I make in the shop as well is crappie jigs panfish jigs etc. Thanks agin an keep up the fun videos sir. Have a blessed week. dale

Really nice how it turned out. I agree with you, fly fishing is the best kind of fishing there is.

Mike I really loved the video series for this project! Especially the heart and reason behind it. The stories about dad and grandpa fishing are great! Thanks for sharing.

Nice build ...i plan to make one myself one day , for now im using a Oasis compact tying tray/ desk . Its small ( 12" x 7" ) but it works great . Im using it in my travels. I just added onto it a drawer on the bottom to stash all my tools . Ok thanks for the videos and build tips 👍

Followed your plane restoration vids and now I see you are a fly tyer

[@donb3557]

Really enjoyed watching this from conception to the finished product. Now all you need do is tie a few flies and get out and enjoy the fruits of your labours. Take care and I wish you good fishing.

[@mikehedden5997]

Thanks, Don. So far I'm really enjoying it. I sit down and tie 5 of the same fly. The fifth one is always better then the first. Thanks for stopping by and taking time to leave the comment. All the best

sure looks good Mike. I do a little fly fishing in the spring here in Michigan when the fish are on their beds. Then regular fishing the rest of the year. never tied Flys before, maybe I should give it a try. Thanks for taking the time to make and post your videos. I sure enjoy them. Have a Jesus filled day.

all the best to you and yr family mike too. greatly envy you can have such big place in the US. In singapore land are scares and we don't have such luxury to have a workshop at home. Cheers Mike. Parry

[@mikehedden5997]

+jparryprodeal Thanks, Parry. I really appreciate your comment. When I'm feeling low because I don't think I have enough space for my shop, I will think of you and count my blessings and consider myself lucky. Thanks again and good luck to you.

[@westsidewil]

What kind of light/magnifier is that? Great video.

[@mikehedden5997]

Hey, Westside, thanks for stopping by and taking time to leave a comment. I bought the light from Rockler wood working. It's has pretty bright LED's and a very good magnifier. I think they sell them to wood carvers, but I like the way I use mine. Thanks again and all the best.

[@westsidewil]

Thanks for the info. : )
