I've noticed that since Vivona's book came out everyone has stepped it up a notch. Just got my copy a couple days ago, hopefully I can turn something out as nice as this.

Jerry, that's great. Before you apply CO, I would pack those white midget arms a little tighter to reduce the amount of Purple peeking through from underneath. Light colors over dark do require a little tighter packing. Scott, I hope to see you joining into the Wrap Staircase soon.

Scott, Ken, & Mark Thanks for the nice words - I look forward to your posts soon.
Billy, I will be spending more time packing - Although I'm getting alot of "bounce back" with those white tips. I wrap pretty tight and they are locked in pretty good. I'll pack as much as I can and then try Doc's tip of "roll packing" as the cp is setting up. It's a little tricky but it works.

Great work Jerry. LOve the colours. If it helps, I recently tried Doc's method with a hard to close wrap with little gaps still visible. I am happy to report the method works well. Just be careful to roll not rub.
