Now I dont have this exact brand...but this type of product is a must if you use epoxy. I enjoy tying thunder creek minnows and other epoxy head minnows and having turner like this will give you perfect smooth heads every time. Without it you have to be very carefull or else you get a misshapen head because the epoxy flows to one side. Not so when using the turners. Perfect heads everytime.
I was apprehensive about buying one of these wheels but once I did I could not be happier I did. If you use epoxy for finishing heads on your flies, dressed trebles or for coating poppers then this is a must have. It’s one of the better investments I’ve made. You might want to get a spare foam wheel if you tie with different size hooks such as a 2/0 (or larger) popper hook and or a size 14 (or smaller) fly for example. I’ve noticed over time the slits in the popper wheel have stretched out when using the bigger hooks so I use one wheel for large hooks and another for smaller ones. If you don’t dry many flies at once then this probably won’t be a problem for you.
Got this on sale and am happy with it. After a few years of trying homemade "devices" for my epoxy heads that never really worked well, I decided to splurge on something made for it. Works good and makes the epoxy look a lot better.
