Renzetti Extended Body Tools

[eatsleapfishrepeat]

Renzetti's extended body tools make ( in my opinion) the best extended bodies I've seen. Has anyone else used these tools or made extended bodies some other way? I will post photos of some damsel flies that I tied using these tools.

Looks like a handy tool, I normally tie on a waxed needle or between tow vices.

I've just used a beading needle when tying extended foam bodies on stonefly and hopper patterns. The Renzetti pins look like they might work better for smaller stuff like mayflies. Anyway, for those who are interested, there's an article on using the Renzetti pins in the current (i.e. Winter 2009) edition of Fly Tyer magazine. Terry
