Does your tying bench need a little love? We're curious to hear! Matt's is typically a disaster zone. Maybe that's why he likes the new Bench Boss so much...
Hey Josh, thanks so much for watching! Great catch, Loon does include a feather bender built into the left side of the Bench Boss. This is designed to help manipulate feathers such as CDC and marabou to make them easier to place in a dubbing loop. Typically you'd place the stem of a feather down into a slot so the fibers point up. From there, you'd use a clip or clamp to grab the fibers, trim the stem and transfer the fibers to a dubbing loop. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to try it out so I can't speak to how well it works. It's nice they included it though I'm not sure how many people will use it. As I mentioned in the review I would have made the boss a little wider and added two more dishes. Hopefully we can do a follow up and show how it works!
