Re: [VFB]new swaps coming?

How about a virtual swap?  I really enjoy swaps but, have a lifetime supply 
from swaps already.

Anyone interested can tie a fly and post it to the list.   Super bowl, 
winter(ice/snow related),bring in the spring, I just wanted to tie it etc.

Re: [VFB] Materials swap is closed.

2015-01-26 Thread Chuck Alexander
Folks: You only need to send me SEVEN packs of materials, as sending eight 
would mean you’d get your own back. Sorry about that, Chuck

From: Chuck Alexander

Subject: [VFB] Materials swap is closed.

Folks: We have eight swappers in the materials swap, and it seems that is it, 
although eight is a good number for this type swap. I’m reposting the list of 
ppl, and the rules of the swap below. From now own, direct any questions or 
comments to me OFF list. Materials are due to me on March 15th, which gives us 
about 6 1/2 weeks, and since we don’t have to tie any flies then that should be 
plenty of time. Thanks, Chuck

Get some of the little (or big) zip lock bags from Michaels, Hobby Lobby, or 
any other craft stores that sell them. They are very cheap, as in about $2 a 
pack at my Hobby Lobby. Put your material or materials in these bags, and make 
SURE and put a paper or sticker with your name on it, so I know who sent me 
what so I don't “short change” anybody inadvertently. Here’s the deal though. 
You’ll need to send 10 different bags. 

Take your materials and for example, if you have ten yards of chenille to swap, 
cut it into ten equal lengths, and bag those up. If you have two or more 
different materials you can or want to send in, you can put them each in 
separate bags, or put all your materials in the same bag, but just like I said, 
make SURE and label your bags with your name so I don’t short anybody or get 
the materials all  confused like I said earlier. And if, for example, you wish 
to swap ten spools of thread, but don’t have ten spools of all black. If that’s 
the case, you can send 5 each of two colors, or 10 of ten different colors, or 
however you  have to “mix and match it”

In this swap, Just send your materials in the normal envelope of box, but I 
sill spring for the return envelopes as I may need huge ones, or I may need 
small ones depending on how much stuff the swappers send in, how bulky it is 
etc. I understand that some tiers have much more materials than others, but 
whatever you wish to send is fine. The idea is that I may have a bunch of 
hackles that are great hackles, but maybe I don’t use that particular color and 
maybe you have materials that are fine, but may be exactly what others tie a 
lot of etc.  The minimum is one material per swapper, but send as much as you 
can, or wish to send.  Sorry for writing rule BOOK here, but I want everybody 
to understand the rules before committing to signing up. Any questions just 
email me. 


Send materials to along with a cpl bucks as per usual to help cover return 
postage. Like I said, I’ll buy the return packages after I get all the 
materials and see which size I need to buy:

make SURE and label your bags with your name so I don’t short anybody or get 
the materials all  confused like I said earlier. And if, for example, you wish 
to swap ten spools of thread, but don’t have ten spools of all black. If that’s 
the case, you can send 5 each of two colors, or 10 of ten different colors, or 
however you  have to “mix and match it”

In this swap, Just send your materials in the normal envelope of box, but I 
sill spring for the return envelopes as I may need huge ones, or I may need 
small ones depending on how much stuff the swappers send in, how bulky it is 
etc. I understand that some tiers have much more materials than others, but 
whatever you wish to send is fine. The idea is that I may have a bunch of 
hackles that are great hackles, but maybe I don’t use that particular color and 
maybe you have materials that are fine, but may be exactly what others tie a 
lot of etc.  The minimum is one material per swapper, but send as much as you 
can, or wish to send.  Sorry for writing rule BOOK here, but I want everybody 
to understand the rules before committing to signing up. Any questions just 
email me. 


Send materials to along with a cpl bucks as per usual to help cover return 
postage. Like I said, I’ll buy the return packages after I get all the 
materials and see which size I need to buy:

the butt.)
Thanks if you're able to shed any light on this.

You're right, Ashley.  I don't know what I was thinking. 
Virtualflybox.com was Byard's website for his sales.


I tried it out and the name has been taken over by someone who is 
selling Apps for Colorado fishing.


I guess we just post photos/videos to the forum.

Or at least try to.
