Now you understand the wonderful world of weaving. It is impossible to get what your deserve for weaving such designs. Excellent work on both the weave and crosswrap.

Beautiful work. Mike did you say the eye is wrapped over the NPS seat?

But if you had not done all of that work what would you have to show for those hours. That is a great looking rod.

Thanks guys...It gave me great satisfaction alone, being able to complete that weave, and utmost respect for those that weave. Mark, the weave was done on a peice of scrap blank. Its bushed and epoxied, meets flush with the nut side of an NPS seat.

Mike, the eye and wrap is simply beautiful. The dragons eye will compliment the NPS seat well. Very well done.

Not only is the weave top notch, but the wrap is as sweet as they get. Great work MJ.
