Steve, THat's interesting. I'd like to hear from the chemists in here what went on.
Dr. D just got a new pattern idea- a firefly. Sorry Byard, Jimmy. I've been trying to keep him under wraps. I use a LOT of superglue gel, but in specific places, mostly for gluing on epoxy eyes. For everything else I use my vinyl cement. Besides the vinyl and gel, I don't own another head cement. They went the way of all of my dubbing waxes and tools. DonO Steve, was your fly a black mamba fly when it was done? Shut-up, Dr.D... ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Brettell To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2007 5:28 PM Subject: Re: [VFB] Zap a Gap Glue ??? Chuck, I was tying a fly that had some mylar tinsel in the head. It was a nymph, and I had pulled several strands of mylar over for the wing case. I wanted to make a flashy fly. I figgered I'd put some Zap a Gap on it to hold the thin strands together. To my considerable surprise, the thing burst into flame! The Glue reacted with the tinsel, and started smoking, and then flaming. Quite a stink. Just be warned. . .be warned (eerie sound effects here).
