Gotta love out of focus pictures...stop by the NERBs booth in High Point and you can see it in focus. I used Polyneon 804 White fo rthe background, just to see if I get blotching & teh othe problems when ligh thread passes over dark. Came out OK.


RATINGS: I give myself a 10 for pattern design, speed of wrapping, and wrapping 2 wraps on 1 blank at teh same time, 9 for using white in the background, 5 for the Spider color selection (Purple & Red), adn a 2 for photography.


My rating is overall 7

I like your pattern and color choice Billy. Looks as tight as a bankers wallet. Pity that the white will turn yellow after some exposure to the elements.

Mark, using Threadmaster I do not expect any yellowing of the finish. Allen, that grip is there so my hand doesn't cramp as I turn the blank. THEre's one at the butt of the blank as well. This comes off after the epoxy is applied to teh wrap...obviously.

Sorry not as found of this one but anyone who works with dark colors with a light backround had got grande, well you know. Oops I did a no no. That is a BUNCH of crosswrapping, better be your rod.

Yeah my rod, that's why nobody likes it, lol. Out of the 3, this one looks the best in real life, but the pics stink, which is perfect.I was 1 1/2 hours into another pattern on this blank when I got angry at teh wrap and cut it all off.
