After many hours of watching Youtube on 3rd shift and watching videos of creating your own streamer brush maker I figured I would give it a go. First I made the brush holder, nothing pretty or special but hey it works.
After completing the brush maker, I found a fiber combination I liked and went at it
After the fibers are stacking you spin them
Then use a brush of sort to “fluff” out the fibers
The brushes I created with a few flies tied from them
All the flies I tied from the streamer brushes, for a fly swap I am participating in
This adds a new element for tying and not a difficult contraption to build if you are interested give me a yall and I could help ya. EP makes there own and you can purchase them at Lowcounty Fly Shop and at Charleston Angler. Also Lowcountry Fly Shop sells a dubbing brush maker if you don’t want to fool with making your own, I am sure Scotty would like to sell ya one.
Figured this might give some fellow tyers new ideas
Bragging may not bring happiness,
but no man having caught a large fish,
goes home through the alley.
