RE: [VFB] Foam Adhesive

[Reuven Segal]

I went to the hardware store a couple weeks back for the same thing and got a cheap 5-piece hollow punch set. For less than US$3- I got a range of sizes- 1/8”, 3/16”, ¼”, 5/16” and 3/8”. When hitting the punch, make sure to have some pine or similar material under the foam so as to not blunt it whilst still providing a solid surface. The sizes would even allow for small popper heads to be made. Larger sizes can surely be found, but in the cheap ones I only found this set. I can send a pic out to anyone who wants to see one. Forget trying to do it cheaper. For no more than a buck or two, you have a decent and safe set that is perfect for the task.   Reuven     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 7 March 2006 12:17 PM To: vfb@troutnet.com Subject: Re: [VFB] Foam Adhesive   OK,,,now that Ive got the sheets glued together,,I need some ideas on cutting out the cylinder shapes that are described in the Fly Tying magazine for cutting out yellow- jacket bodies. I believe they were calling it the hammer fly????But I do have the black,yellow, black, yellow and black all glued together and dried,,ends up being about 1/2 thick. I was considering empty bullet shells,,22cal, 38cal. and maybe 9mm. Any other ideas??   Thanks for your time Ray
