The original subject of Cutting Open Cell foam has disappeared Some time
back, I'm sad to say, but the Subject line has stayed on, like it has a
life of its own.. When we change the subject, please change the subject
line to reflect the current topic. I had to wade through no less than
"7" foams on subject line, but all were on a different subject.

Jerry: I think that is a great looking fly, and agree with Jim that it
should be called a "Chili Popper".. Is that two bodies glued
together?? Or one body??? Thanks, Chuck
Everyone I know who glues sheets together either uses the spray
adhesive or the rubber cement. I still like working with
the white cylinders or preformed bodies.
For the tear drop bodies, like Alan I buy mine. I imagined
they're punched out by some automated process.
I saw an interesting pattern at a local sportsman show over the
winter using the tear drop bodies. The guy was kind enough to
show me how to tie it. This is what my version looks like. It uses
the large bodies.
