Re: [VFB] tying parachutes

[Tony Spezio]

I should of mentioned in my post, that is the only hackle pliers I use 
for parachutes. You can work the hackle with it real easy by lowering it 
on the far and near side of the shank to keep the barbs from getting 
caught in the wrap.

I agree with Henk that the "parachute tools"  or gallows tools are useless.
But one tool that is handy for parachute flies is a rotating hackle pliers.
Since the hackle is wound around the post horizontally the thread is out of
the way and you don't have to work around it.
