Purchased one a few months ago, used it a little bit and stopped for one stupid reason. In the package they send 2 different sized mandrels, 2 different sized tubes and 2 different sized juctions tubes. The smaller tubes do not fit over the smaller mandrel. Either the mandrel is too big or the inside diameter of the tube is too small The larger tubes fit over the larger mandrel like a glove. What, from your experience, is wrong? Knowing what I have, can you recommend any other materials I need? Cones, Hooks, beads...etc... I'm new to this whole tube thing. I would like to start using them on LLS here in the spring!

what you have is one of the mistake starter kits from HMH. there was a batch that had the small dia plastic with a smaller hole, .031 compared to .041 the standard small mandrel. it was a batch that just had the wrong tubing in it. PM me an address and i'll send you some of the correct stuff.
as far as what else i would simply let your tying show you what you need or more importantly what you want;)
