Thanks for posting.  Altho I only have need for hide attached mink, skrat, & rabbit fur ties your KISS tutorial will be useful if I ever need to tie with hair.

I use a button with a microfiber loop to pull the thread tag end under a few wraps to finish.

Nice Video,  I tie  mine a bit differently but love the red collar with bucktail.

Years ago, I met this character and loved his jigs

Great video Jay. Awesome simple tutorial! I tie mine very similar but finish them a little different. I just use the original thread and whip finish in opposite directions a few times then coat them with nail polish. On smaller jigs I add the nail polish right after the first layer of thread also to help keep everything in place. Thanks for posting!!
