Stonfo Bobbin Rest art. 480
The Stonfo Bobbin Rest art. 480 is a practical fly tying vise accessory designed to keep the bobbin holder safely out of the tying area whenever the thread is temporarily not in use.

It fits fly tying vises with an 8–10 mm stem diameter and provides secure support for the bobbin holder, helping maintain proper thread control while preventing unwanted slack or tangles during tying.
Manufactured in Italy, the Stonfo Bobbin Rest art. 480 is a high-quality accessory that improves workspace organization and tying efficiency, making it especially useful for rotary tying techniques and for fly tyers working with multiple bobbin holders.
