"Rivers course through my dreams, rivers cold and fast, rivers well-known and rivers nameless, rivers that seem like ribbons of blue water twisting through wide valleys, narrow rivers folded in layers of darkening shadow, rivers that have eroded down deep in a mountain's belly, sculpted the land, peeled back the planet's history exposing the texture of time itself."

"Each night as I haul myself onto the back of county garbage truck no. 2, there is a familiar wind, some thread of moonglow or starlight, a splatter of dark rain on my skin, something that stirs my memory, and again, if even for a brief moment, I am on some mountain river, some stretch of bright water, full of possibilities, including the possibility of trout, perhaps one that, when hooked, will haul me in and out of time, in and out of life's mysterious and frightening, wondrous and incomprehensible continuum, even to the edges of the universe." -- Harry Middleton

Everyone I know who has one got it at a show. I have yet to see one in a shop, but then again I am not looking for one. There is a dealer link at the bottom of the page you have listed.

Check this out for more information on the tool: www.hatchesmagazine.com/page/month/361

To order the tool go to this site: http://flytyingtool.net/

I will personally stick with my Byrd "Y" dubbing tool. Tried one against the other and although the whirly gig works pretty good there are some issues I couldn't resolve.

Thank you Charlie. I saw the item in Hatches magazine, but none of the dealers close to me listed on the web page that I called carried the item. Heck, most of them never heard of it.
