Hmmmh! I thought that had a storage/organization problem but Don O has an even bigger problem after seeing his tying room.
Seriously, I am looking for idea's from the list. As a result of buying a friends fly tying materials, I do have some duplication, but I need to organize the whole lot to find the duplicates. One thing that I need to make is a stand with dowels to hold my Norvise spools - probably 3 or 4 vertical dowels attached to a base for the different thread sizes. I saw a rather nice one in a pic somewhere but I don't know where. I will have to redo my Excel spreadsheet as I forget to add new purchases and categorize them. I have somewhat reluctantly decided to add the results of many fly swaps to my fly boxes and to use the flies as I have too many boxes of swap flies. I will retain those special ones that I would like to copy. I am currently going through several hundred flies and sorting them into categories such as leeches, cutthroat flies, steelhead inc tubes & waddingtons, trout nymphs, dries, stoneflies etc. Some of them were ties years ago. There has to be a better way than mine.
