I've lost more than one and found out you can make them out of speedometer cable and fake fur from the craft shop.

i had to do the same thing! one of my tails fell off the FIRST time i had it out. Fake fur from the craft store fixed it for about $2 (i was there with my wife of course, as a man, i would never frequent the craft store alone, lol)
lol.. I walk around in every "yarn" and "craft" store I get close to. Anytime anyone gets within 6 feet I say, "I tie flies". They got no idea what I'm talking about - but I feel better.
I feel better too - when I pick up a life's worth of materials for the same price as them little bags sold in fly shops..
Don't get me wrong, I like to support the small shops, for hooks, line, etcs, but for beads, yarns, and other synthetics, craft stores are the way to go.
p.s. - can't you guys just use a tree-rat tail as a topper?
