Cutting Mylar Strips for Fly Tying & Crafts 

This is brilliant! Thanks for the tutorial!

Thank you for a great video. I will have to make one of these. I would like to add that cutter would be useful for making your own rabbit zonked strips.

This is the idea what I am looking for! Simple but brilliant solution, thanks a lot!

Now that’s a tip👍

Great tool Chris, thanks.

Hey Chris, your fly tying videos are great. This mylar strip idea is awesome. So much more efficient than my single strip "ruler and exacto knife" method. Here's an idea for people who are struggling with making the handle form out of foil -- they could instead use the tray from a sliding box of matches, like the Coghlan's waterproof matches. Alternatively, a form could be made out of card stock by cutting out a base and sides and hot gluing the pieces together to make the box. Thanks again for being generous and sharing your experience and knowledge with the community!

Great idea. I wish I'd have had some of these shortcuts of your's a few decades ago!

Very good video. I have been looking for simple practical way to make strips for some time now. Thanks!!! I have a feeling the wife's mylar scrap bin is going to be raided.

Brilliant video. Will try it without doubt . Will try this using a match box instead of foil for the block. Thanks again .

What a money saver tip this is, thanks !

Very helpfull! Thnx very much.

Nice, clever video.

Good idea!! Greetings from Heidelberg Germany

Nice ! Flash is usually so expensive, and a hank is always one color, so now I can have what ever color I want. I wonder if I used Lays chip bag, if the fish could only just eat one.

Man you have some incredibly ingenious ideas that produce legit results...more than earned my sub!

Any idea if you can do this with silicon balloons?

Love it, have you made the video for bunny strips yet?

how many is a buncha? or should i ask how many in a buncha? I am from New Zealand, and every time I hear Americans describe a quantity of anything it is referred to as a buncha, so I would like to know the reference count number of a buncha.

Great video but, as of today's date, I guess 7 people evidently really really really prefer store bought tinsel over DIY tinsel since they thumbs downed the video for some reason . Lol

"Tinsel is basically Mylar..." Not always. I have some (very old) silver tinsel that is actually silver.
