Description
Our Classic design keeps the functionality of a traditional bobbin in mind with some upgrades.
Greenhorn Classic is manufactured from Solid Brass, Industrial Jewels and Tool Steel, no plastic here. As most Bobbins on the market are striving for a light weight item we have taken the opposite approach. We feel Tools should have some mass to them and feel good in the hand and the extra benefit is that the extra mass will provide holding power to your materials while creating a Fly. Our Proprietary Thread Guide Tube incorporates the finest in Industrial Jewl Guides in the Inlet and Outlet of the tube. Using Watchmaker Techniques these Jewels are set into the ends to further protect them and provide for precise alignment. Tension for the Thread Spool is provided by the tyer in the hand. If you are desiring a Pre-Set Tension Bobbin, please see El Hefe Bobbin as it has this system built in. Overall Total Length for Standard is 4 inches.
Thread Tube are fully customizable. Some tyers like a really short thread tube for tying those pesky really small flies, while others tying large streamers like the extra reach and a longer tube. The standard length of the tube extending from the Bobbin is ¾ inch.
The Tension Rods are also fully customizable. Based on Tying Style, Hand Size or Physical Need we can make the length to what you need. Some tyers like the Thread Spool to be in the center of the hand while others require the thread spool to be completely clear of the hand. Standard Length of the Tension Rods that hold the Thread Spool is 2 inches.
