Best resource for "how to" on chevron butt wraps

I'm on my second rod and did an open diamond wrap on my first rod. I would like to do a chevron on my second and was looking for good instruction on the how to's, is there a good resource out there?

Thanks, Craig

Look at the menu on the left hand side of the page.



If you had the VisualWRAP software you could see any number of cross wrap patterns being "wrapped" on your screen, then shown in 3D, in various colours, and printed true-to-size.

The chevron is done just like a diamond, except you build on only one side of the centers instead of both sides. If you can do a diamond, you've pretty much already done a chevron - you just did two of them on opposing sides.

I won't post another site's url here, so tried to email you but your email address is hidden. There are some excellent instructions out there free for download.

Loneranger, I would repost using your full name (first and Last) as required by site rules as it will probably be automattically deleted before Lou gets to see it
