I've got one that takes me about 3 to 4 minutes. I'll post the
illustrations for making it, but I'm not so good at written instructions.
If you phone me, I'll try to talk you through it. (214)293-2038 You might
be able to get it from the pictures, but if not call me at BR-549.

        Good fishing,
                John.
