Re: [VFB] How does jig thread compare in diameter with 6/0 or 3/0?
I wish thread companies would all go to the denier system. You're right. I can't hardly tie using Guderbrod 10/0, cause it's soo tiny, but I have no problems with the Griffin's 14/0. Something else that's weird (to me anyway) about Guderbrod. They STILL make TONS of thread (unless they JUST stopped) My wife worked at the sewing factory near here and they use Guderbrod thread to make ALL the high dollar Jos A Bank men's dress suits. - Original Message - From: Anthony Spezio To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, March 01, 2010 4:41 PM Subject: Re: [VFB] How does jig thread compare in diameter with 6/0 or 3/0?

Re: [VFB] How does jig thread compare in diameter with 6/0 or 3/0?
They still make tons of thread but not all for tying. My contact there said they did not have enough sales for Fly Tying thread is why they dropped the Pro staff and got out of tying materials . Tying thread is waxed, sewing thread is not waxed. They also make a load of medical materials. Making thread for tyers was not economical. Money is the big thing. I have been told they are making tying thread for Orvis under contract. The reason you can use 14/0 over 10/0 is the 14/0 is a heavier thread. You can't go by the number.

Re: [VFB] How does jig thread compare in diameter with 6/0 or 3/0?
Wes, I have a collections of hundreds of threads of all kinds for tying threads- standard threads, kevlars, spun gels, nylons, flat, wound, braided, waxed, unwaxed, rod-binding, millinery, monos, floss, you name it, from almost microscopic (for #32s) to 50# test Gorilla-braid (for marlin flies). Because threads have more properties than just diameter, I find on many ties that it is easier/better to use multiple threads for different stages of the fly. Like with the rope-dub, I may want to tie with a flat thread, but actually do the rope on wire or mono, then build the thorax with the flat thread that will tie in the legs easily, then swap to a head color to get the final look that I want. Just depends on the fly and materials used. Many times I just want strength, and choosing a thread that has the strength I need and the other properties I want for the tie is a matter of trial and error. One problem is that most of my threads no longer have any designations left on the spool, so I'm just guessing by looking at the properties what the stuff is. I test the strength, look at how it lays down, and then use it if it works. If I'm finishing a head, I look for a flat waxed thread of proper color, as it will build up more neatly. Sometimes I use the light under-belly color and then use markers for the darker over-color. I try to keep threads grouped by kinds, but that doesn't always work. This year, orange seems to be moving in as the most popular color (did well last year)- probably all started by Tony and his Chili-pepper. LOL Orange (flourescent) hares ears, scuds, San Juans, emergers, buggers, streamers, and just about anything in orange or with orange accents. So my orange thread will go on a lot of heads.

Re: [VFB] How does jig thread compare in diameter with 6/0 or 3/0?
Chris Helm bought out the remaining stock of Gudebrod thread, but there are not many colors and sizes left. Orvis' thread doesn't have the complete line up of colors in every size. I had used Orvis thread before I knew much about fly tying, in fact it was my first thread I started with. It was Tony that introduced me to Gudebrod just as they shut things down. Recently I have subjected Tony to much whining and complaining about finding a suitable substitute. I think I have found a suitable replacement in Eurothreads marketed by Hook and Hackle. The orange isn't as bright, but it is just as thin and lays just as flat as my dwindling supply of Gudebrod. And I can get it in 3/0 all the way to 12/0.
