I've been doing tiger wraps for a while now and they are beast in their own right. This one happened to turn out exceptional and thought I'd drop a couple pictures of it over here for your enjoyment. They don't photograph as well as they look - darn 3d affect :) The rod is a Seeker CJBF70H. I built two of them, one in green and one in blue - Here is the blue one.

The guide wraps were rather fun, 5 turns of blue, that two than one. In the middle three turns of gold followed by blue and gold together for three than back to three of gold

Nice tiger Ted! I just got a couple of 1/2" dowels the other day so I could try tigers and start some simple weaving. At least add it to my list of things to do . . . baby steps . . .
Thanks for sharing.
