Don, I have a 2 foot by 3 foot box of dubbings, all in disarray. I also make some of my "special" ones. I couldn't part with a one..might need it sometime. I'm a dubbing hoarder. One can never have too many dubbings.. remember, it is my sister who thinks I have to many. She also thinks I have too many saddles and necks ( a dresser full). I love tying and love the sheer joy of the artistic creation of flies. Joyce
