In fact, that would be a great project to follow up the Benchside Reference: A DVD filled with Quicktime or WAV video clips illustrating each technique. I have found that it is often very subtle things done by a tier that make all of the difference. These are difficult to illustrate in a book.
I have digitized all of my fly fishing videos into Quicktime clips so I can watch them on my computer. It makes them much more useful.

�I will second you on the Art of Fly Tying, it's the book I learned to tie from. Another one that would be good is Fly tying made clear and simple by Skip Morris.
