Leisenring's Method to Building a Dubbing Rope

In the Art of Tying the Wet Fly,  Leisenring has a rather descriptive tutorial on how he builds his dubbing ropes.   The technique involves building the rope on his pant leg over his knee.  The book dedicates about 3 pages to the tutorial with few photos.  A close reading is necessary to understand the process.  I was going to do a lengthy tutorial with excerpts from the pages of The Art of Tying the Wet Fly.  Instead I tried my hand at a video.  I think the video, with the ability to show the process in it's natural flow works better.  It's not perfect but I hope it is clear in the procedure.  I go slow in the video but the process is fairly quick, and once proficient,  it  is not difficult to build many dubbing ropes in a short amount of time.  Just make sure that if you decide to build a bunch this way that you wear an old pair of pants.
