Cottarelli TRAVEL T-REX Travel
The TRAVEL T-REX is designed to tie artificial flies on very large hooks. In fact, the long fork with which it is equipped, allows you to accommodate up to 2 heads simultaneously and thus have 2 anchor points on the curvature of the hook. This system allows to have an optimal grip without necessarily having to go to tighten too energetically the jaws of the head, with the risk of ruining hooks that on this size could be very expensive.
Like all Cottarelli's Travel series (CTA), it is equipped with an intelligent tripod system that can be closed on itself and occupy very little space. This tripod is made of solid brass, which allows you to have excellent stability during the fly tying. Also on the horizontal arm there are holes that allow you to accommodate the fly tying tools that you are not currently using to be able to keep a workplace always clean and tidy.
The numerous joints of the TRAVEL T-REX allow a practically infinite variety of adjustments. The upper block, made mainly of aluminum, is able to tilt at will and rotate freely 360 degrees, this rotation is adjustable in turn by a clutch. If you align the axis of the hook stem with the axis of the vise, you will be able to spin the hook perfectly on its axis.
To facilitate the rotation of the head, the crank handle (which is normally purchased separately) is included in the sale of the vice
Thanks to the modularity of the Cottarelli vises, it is possible to remove all the upper part (fork + heads) and mount the short fork or the Shuttle pliers (available separately).
