Here is a nice cheap home made dubbing brush (told to me by a friend), easy to make and it works very well. Take an old tooth brush and cut off the bristles, cut a piece of Velcro (the side with the small hooks) to fit the head of the toothbrush and glue in place. Thats it you're done Grin

That is a very good idea, never thought of something like that.  Wishin I wouldnt have bought one now. lol  Chum, its a tool used for twisting dubbing onto your thread and then wrapping the dubbing around the hooks shank.

I just saw one of the commercial tools for this. It looks like a .223 bore brush with a handle. Think I may have to go with fisher and play doctor with an old toothbrush.

A 4" piece of 1/2" dowell with self-adhesive Velcro (the loop side) wrapped around one end has worked well for me.
