I had to open the book to see this wrap. Need new names, #78 is a crappy name for a pattern...I'm working on that though. Nice wrap, nice colors. It's great to see "new old" patterns being wrapped.

Thanks Ray and Billy. It's a little bit of a variation colorwise on the book but it gave me some ideas for next time. Man I love PVC.

With all these test wraps, you'll have some "stock" to practice your CP/epoxy techniques on. Tinker around. Actually - how long are you spending on these? Might not want to pracetice on 6 hour wraps. That Pink/Purple test stick I had in Charlotte I went and poured finish on before applying CP - VERY interesting results. No Tartans with Maderia.

This one looked great in person, clean and tight. You've definately got the makings of a thread junkie.

Thanks Mike. You never should have posted the dryer or the chuck. My wife loved your wine glass I brought home. It made it in one piece in my luggage. If she ever sees the post I'm in trouble. I told her it was impossible to duplicate.
