Tywheel

Y'all check this out.  www.tywheel.com

I'm fortunate enough to know the guys making these and got a prototype back in April.  I love this thing.  It's completely customizable and can be adapted in a flash.  There will be new attachments and a tytower attachment organizer coming out soon.

This is really the most revolutionary fly tying concept I have seen in a very long time.  It puts the old Oasis organization systems to shame in my opinion.

Feel free to share your thoughts or ask questions.

Phil, that is a slick product. Can it be used with a bench mounted vice vs. a base mount? I have a base, but prefer mine mounted to my bench.

As well, I like how you keep your tying table a little more free of clutter because you can put materials on the TyWheel.

Steve, you'd have to have a 2" bushing if you wanted to use the trash collector, around 3/4" if not to keep it from rotating on desk.

It will work on either, a bushing with a set screw in it works well.  I don't use the can deal really, I use an attachment with a bobbin holder instead of that one... So mine can sit a little lower.  It works on most vice shafts... Except for the really short ones.

Cool, thanks Grumpy and Phil for the feedback.
