Nice quote Tom..........he's a heck of a guy. Since i read my newest emails first, instead of my oldest.......hotmail comes in upside down.......so to speak. Anyone ever tried using a bullet shell for a hair stacker. I've seen Keith Fulsher and Charlie Krom (co-authors of Hair Wing Atlantic Salmon Flies), use them many times. I do think you have to become adept at it though. In the beginning it might not work as good as a coventional stacker. I've never tried it..........cause i'm not cheap, LMAO. I leave that tune for the birds to sing.........lol. I think the use of casings came about because guys had to do something during the depression............guess it started back then.........lol. mark.....p.s. Tom......tying........not tieing

I like the Edgin stackers. If you're looking for an alternative to an official stacker, you may want to look for something that does not build up static, as plastics do. Static is quite frustrating if you're tying with deer hair. I noticed that even wearing a fleece sweater can make stacking very hard to do.

you are SO right about alternatives...i did think about film cannisters but i thought they were too deep (but then a brain cramp....) Cut it down a bit....(slapping myself in the forehead....) i'm pretty good at finding things around the house and in my shed and pretty inventive to boot!!
