Thought I'd make use of my latest killed can of Skruf los. I'm an avid fly fisherman and get out on the rivers up here in B.C. as much as I can. When I'm not 'allowed' out i usually go down to the basement and tie my own flies. I've taken it one step further and made this cool little fly box out of a Skruf can. Just bought some peel n stick craft foam, and cut it to shape. Then I put a thick lateral bead of marine goop over the lid and side of the can to form a flexible hinge. I thought it came out pretty slick. Lid snaps shut nice n snug and the hinge keeps it from falling in the water when reaching for a new fly. Good conversation piece out on the river with the other guys fishing.
I know, I know, ...you're thinkin' dude, get a life! But my fly tying bench is downstairs where all my little girls toys are so she can play contently while i whip up new creations to try and fool trout and salmon. Pretty good set-up. Anyway, thought i'd share. Recycled snus can? Check.
