the type of plastic you want is low-density polyethylene (LDPE) or linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE). you can also use High-Density versions of both of those (ala grocery bags). Smiths bags are tan, but very thin so they might be too weak. Polyester plastics also work really well. PetG, or ABS can also be used, but are generally not clear. One thing to note, if its a concern to you, if you stretch the plastic and it changes color, it'll make a great 1 fish fly. unless the whitening of the plastic makes the fly work better...I'm rambling. Trading card clear bags are the type of plastic he uses here. BUT sometimes they are thicker. Acid/base and chemical resistant plastic is what you want.
Thank you for doing this one Cheech! I've been struggling with getting them to look right =) Also, whether or not he is kidding about the coffee grinder catching on fire...They do... You will let the smoke out for sure...and its really hard to get the smoke back in there! fibers longer than an inch can and do get wrapped around the blades and the motor shaft causing drag, and stalling the motor...and the 19 dollar Amazon coffee grinder can handle about 3 seconds of stalled motor before it turns into a bad incense burner.
The shiny bag is polypropylene. The duller bag is polyethylene. Polypropylene is clearer, shinier, and smoother by nature. Most product bags (i.e. dubbing bags) are polypropylene so that you have a clear view of what’s inside. I sell bags for a living.
"...6'5", 300 lbs..." I suggested a couple weeks ago that Uncle Cheech's beard should be etched into Mt. Rushmore, but Cheech IS Mt. Rushmore! Thanks for the tutorial.

I’ve been pulling plastic for scud backs for a while. Works great and yes, you need the right type - LDPE.
Cheech, you are amazing👍
Quality vid for sure FFF crew, but maybe a tighter shot on the vice next time ? Too zoomed out
Love the bag trick
