Another tip to you AWESOME list Brook, on those smaller flies.
Add the head cement or Zap-A Gap in my case to the thread before tie off. then you only need to do ONE whip Have to work fast though so it doesn't glue before tightening last loop.
On my #30's that is the main thing.
I agree totally with the drying wheel. I got one this year and use it all the time, because I tie so many Chironomids and coat them well with Sally Hansen Hard As Nails for a great body on the fly.
Before I go the wheel I could only tie three at a time as I had three vises[cool]
