Tip

Tip: Glue is optional for durability; head cement can secure the finished head

How to do it: Use glue optionally for durability, and head cement to secure the finished head

Mistake it fixes: Assuming glue is required, or leaving heads unsecured

Why it works: Glue and cement add durability but are optional if wraps are secure. Cement on the head protects the finish.

When it matters most: Fly tying, finishing
