Moses Caught Cheating
I've been following all of my fellow F-16 and other Wire Frame shooters and trying out all of the flatband and tube tying methods they use. I haven't found a formula I don't like, but they all have one thing in common.
I don't like the fiddlin' and deluxin' that they all have mastered when tying onto their wire frames. It took me longer than a few tries to get comfortable with the standard wrap and tuck. I hope it is just basic arthritis that is my dilemma because I'll get a thumb or finger cramp that would make Jesus start swearing if my tie-on doesn't go smoothly!
Even with all that suffering I had refused to drop $6 on a fancy-schmany do-dad to attach a bit of rubber to my F-16. Until today.
This is not a paid testimonial.
I am just giving my permission to anyone out there that it is okay to cheat like I am. Then the lonliness and pain in my heart will be less. I am going to go out back and give some more squirrels the dizzy's with a handful of clay balls. Then I am going to come back in and tie on a looped set of bands in a minute and a few seconds or less and then go back out and try for some ear-fur. Cheers, Mo

I did use them for one outing then took them off. One reason was the Grandpa Grumpy tip on helping the Cuffing Tubes develope a memory so I could roll them open and closed much easier. The second reason is that I didn't like the scarring of the frame from the set screw on the collar. It just works against my sensibilities to have any surface on my frame that could scar a piece of rubber.hey brother figer? how are those working out for you? still using them?I've been following all of my fellow F-16 and other Wire Frame shooters and trying out all of the flatband and tube tying methods they use.

I'd like a collar that has a slot cut through it with a hex screw passing through the slot and creating an actual clamp around the metal rod. Think like a hose clamp but out of a piece of metal. Like this photo but in 1/4".
