Just trying to emule Tanaka's workart as a way to improve my skill.
Still a lot to improve, although I'm quite satisfied with the result.
Thanks to all you, folks, for your help!!!

Looks good. Now I'll suggest one thing - drop a single inlay, or a triple inlay (not a double) just inside of the outer gold tag wrap on each end. I think you'll be amazed at how it perks up the whole wrap.

Thnaks, Tom. Do you mean (in this picture) next to the right of the first gold tag at the left? I mean, in the tags outside the roller feet?.

I have a question. I am doing a set of stand ups with similar thread work. My probles is where to center the inlays between the guide feet. The darn things are excentric and I have not figured out which visually looks better centered or under the high point of the frame. Is this just personal preference or is one way better visually from the other?
