Thanks for the tip, Mike.

I twisted a few up using 4 and 8 lb. mono. A little trickier than they make it look in the video, but quite simple once you get the hang of it. Takes about 5 minutes per leader. A little time saver: I just make the first twist an inch or so longer than I want the finished leader to be, then make the butt loop and continue with the second twist. Finished leader looks pretty much identical to the ones I made using the full first twist.
