Weaves and Butt Wraps?
Posted by: Jim Brandt (---.dsl.rcsntx.swbell.net)

Just starting to expand on the decorative side of this addiction and start using weaves and butt wraps on the rod I am building. I have figured out the layouts, etc., but have one question. Does anyone know the width of Size A and Size D thread?

Thanks for the help.

Jim

Careful, as I've heard (and agree) that NCP White is thicker than other NCP colors of the same size

Jeff - I have some really cool info you've posted on the old Guild board in a notebook. When I'm ready to do my first weave, I know how to get it flat and tight.

Thanks, BIlly
