| I made this #20 BmpBwo just to prove it was possible.
|
| Bottom mounted parachutes aren't well suited to
|
| itty bitties however. Size 16 is the smallest
|
| reasonable size to make this way.
|
|
|
| For size 16 and larger the bottom mounted parachute
|
| is remarkably easy. Winding the hackle as a last
|
| step, after the thread has already been snipped off,
|
| leaves little left to go wrong.
|
|
|
| But you do begin to run out of room underneath
|
| the shank at size 18 and smaller.
