Cut some white and black arctic fox cross cuts and some white rabbit cross cuts.  A buddy on one of my fly tying boards asked me about white with Chartreuse tips - so I'm going to try dyeing just the tips on the white!!! I threaded the white on wires and have to hit the dollar store to get the right pan. 

 

and the results - learned a few things REAL QUICK!!!

You don't need a lot of dye.  I mixed the dye in one of my glass canning jars and then poured it in the pan - since I had so much left I grabbed some red fox and stuffed it in the jar and it came out great!!!!

You can't just set these in the dye and leave them as the fur will suck the dye right up - doing these is just a dip and lift and repeat.

Would work way better if you had a clamp and just the tips hung out, more to hold on to and you could do a bunch at the same time. 

Altough they weren't perfect you can see white atop the dye on the tips

That's awesome! Well done! I'm drooling over the dyed tips. I tie with arctic fox a lot, but I have never zonked it. Now the gears are turning   

Thanks - it was tough with the wires but not bad for the first time I tried it.  I found some 4.5" stainless steel bulldog clips and they should?? keep the dye from going to high, and give me a solid hold to dip in and out. 

 

I get a lot of the two toned by getting the Hareline assorted pieces packs and cutting them myself.  I bought some lime green arctic fox pelts and I want to try dipping the tips purple but need the clips first.  We'll see what happens with those!!LOL
