A good friend of mine, who happens to be a fly fisherman, had commented on some of the beautiful fly tying cabinets, boxes and stations he had seen on the Internet. So I decided that I would build one for him. The cabinet stores the fly tying vise, all of the tools and includes a wall of thread storage. I also added plenty of drawers to store feathers, hackels, fur and fish hooks.
I think if I were to make another however, I would make it using 2/4 material instead of 4/4.













It’s great . Being both a woodworker and fly fisher I really love to see others solution to how to bring all fly tying stuff around.
Well done, Ray. I love the look and imagine your friend will admire your work and friendship for many years.
I think it’s just beautiful.
Ray, great looking cabinet. I like the idea that it really serves a purpose vs just decorative. Super job.
A superb cabinet Ray, and I agree with Dan D. completely.
Your friend is a lucky guy.

being a fly fisherman and avid tyer, i can completely appreciate a project like this! i’ve often thought of building one for myself but never mustered up the motivation since i have a fixed tying station at home. regardless though, kudos on the build, the design, and the general awesomeness of the the entire thing!
That is a GORGEOUS piece of cabinetry my good man!
