When I finish a wrap, I always have a liitle thread end sticking up (I tried a variety of scissors and other items) and I pull hard to try to get the end to slip uderneath. If the end sticks up, how can you remedy the problem? Re: finishing wraps

You can put your first coat of finish on the wrap and then slice off the thread end with a NEW razor blade.
You might want to try and putting your pull through loop into the wrap a bit earlier and then when you go to cut your thread cut it short so that it will stay under you wrap. Re: finishing wraps

When I finish a wrap and pull the thread thru I pull the thread back up the rod and use a razor blade laid almost flat against the wrap facing vertical and cut. I pull back up the thread just hard enough to see a small gap and I have not had a problem with a fuzzy end. I get it to lay nice and flat again with a quick burnish and all is well.
