  Been using the 2 pin version for some years. Once set up you can churn out hook lengths the same length without any problems. Although I still do my longer feeder lengths by hand as I didn’t know they were doing an extension board now, will have to give it a look.

  Got one years ago before he stopped making them until last year when he started up again and it’s still as good as the day I got it. Ties perfect to lenght hooklenghts every time. Don’t bother with the extension just get a long enough piece of 4×1 wood place your pro tie on it put 4 conti blocks around it I stop it moving then one at the required length to hold the pin.

  I bought one last year, took a while to get hold of however it’s very well made. I personally don’t get on with it as I prefer my home-made hook tyer, however I keep meaning to get it back out a try to learn to like it.
  
  They’re certainly well made and the guy at Pro-Tie is a top guy.

  could’nt agree more, very good bit of kit, I have the rig extension bar as well and can’t fault the whole set up, once you get the hang of using it hook lengths and rigs perfect everytime, highly reccommended, 🙂 🙂 🙂

  whats so special about this extention for rig making ?
  i usually knock my rigs up at the breakfast bar then just walk outside and test em in my pond ?
  simple really ! is the extention a must have item ?
