Hi Peter & all
> So what happens when you melt your old combs?
> Does the Nylon resist the heat?
Yes, although the odd one or two go so slack that they need re- doing.
Nylon, or whatever polymer they are now using, will resist higher
temperatures than beeswax.
To pick up on Todds last message about cost...
> bargain stores (dollar stores, etc.),
We have similar bargain stores in UK, but I do not recall any of them ever
having any fishing line for sale.
> clearance sales at sporting goods departments
As a disabled old git, I am unlikey to visit a sports department :-)
My source of supply is a fishing tackle shop in the small town I live in,
however the brand I am using is the cheapest that they have.
I did on one occasion find a spool of suitable stuff at a 'car boot sale'
which was only pennies.
