Nice job Mark. You need to put the camera on a tri pod and just rotate the rod between shots so the focal distance and position don't change.

Hi Michael
It is a 60 thread pattern with 62 steps, but you got 6 Layers ( 60,60, 53,52,35 and 43) the thread I used in this weave was Madeira 40 and Rice B for the background.

Thanks Mark, Its good to know what might be a good wrapping thread for the 40wt. The set up alone must take a awhile.
