It is a good deal. There is a saying, that it takes 100 times of a new experience to have it conquered.. Start with simple flies, like gold ribbed hare's ears, Czech nymphs, and then work on to salt water flies that you usually tie. Every fly, think, how can I make this vise work for me and how do I use the rotary fashion best. Be sure to look,at Norm's CD and go online to his web page and view the flies tied there. I was comfortable with this vise after an order for 100 flies and honestly think I could no longer tie with a regular vise. When I go to tying classes and forums, I find that dubbing is a breeze, ribbing is fast and even and I watch others struggle, even those who've tied a lot, to get these two things done well. Enjoy.
