Did not know Airflo sinktips had braided cores. Do you carry this stuff in bulk, Bill, or only premade heads?

We have the Airflow t-14 material in bulk.

We bought one of the new Airflo Welded Loop machines.

We can weld loops on lines and even splice fly lines together.

Today Aaron taught me how to make welded loops. I have to say that I am very impressed with how easy and cool the welded loops can be to make. I highly recommend that anyone bring in shooting heads, custom cut lines or a basic floating line if you'd like to try a loop on the front to make removing and attaching leaders easier.
