I understand Billy has put together a book of patterns and I'd like to find out more about it. Do I need visual wrap to use it. Who sells them. etc. Any feedback would be great.

Billy is not a sponsor, so he is not going to promote or answer any question about it on the forum. He will respond to e-mail's though.

I can answer part of your question. You dont need visual wrap to use the books and I have one and it is very precise at explaning the wraps depicted.

I"d say the publicity he's gotten in this thread is just as good if not better than any sponsor.

Rob - I'd like to think the hundreds of pictures I've posted plus all the help I've given to people over the past 5 years gave me more publicity than a thread which has less than 300 views. I've spoken to Tom about this already, 2 months ago - so it's not somethign where I'm looking to get over with "free publicity" or anythign like that. I'm just not done with the big book yet.
