Easy fix is to just wrap the thread end on the button on
I do have the smaller set, but I am a lazy one, so found that I really
didn't need them unless I tied 24s, and as I can't see to tie them on,
there is no need to tie them. I do 22's with no problem at all. I can say

I have the standard set of jaws, never needed the smaller or bigger set and

Hi Tony;
The one I'm buying has the saltwater jaws, never used and very reasonable

Will have to email Scott, have not heard from him since before SowBug.Â

I bought mine with the big saltwater jaws but changed to the smaller jaws. I
also have a set of midge jaws that I have not used yet. I do very little tying
now so I don't use my Norvise very much.Wayne, Scott has a Norvise.Arkansas

Building a base works - advantage of the purchased base is weight. It's
made of bamboo and is nice and light for transporting.
