I see that BD Ehler has two sites showing " Introduction to cross wraps" and "Multiple thread wraps" Rather than prints these out since there are several pages in each, i was wondering if anyone know if he has a book out on these subjects that i can purchase? I think that would be easier and give me a permanent source of info. Any help or advice would be great, thanks Jack

Buy Billy Vivona's book, It has some great patterns that are easy to follow. You can get in touch with him on this forum.

Billy's book is what you want. Also seriously consider the Visual Wrap crosswrap software on thed left

JAck, I think you have a copy of my book? And I'm going to be in Tabernacle, NJ doing a NERBs Gathering this Saturday, one of the 9 hours worth of topics will be Decorative WRaps.

BD, is a great person and a wealth of knowledge in all aspects of rod building. I believe that he helped along with several other contributors to help Dale Clemens write the book [www.mudhole.com] . If you want a book that is a good reference of BD's work this would be the book to purchase. With that said, Billy's book is also a great reference and very user friendly. You really can't go wrong with either book, and they are both great people, both always willing to help out with any questions that you have.

[www.amazon.com] You can get a used copy for about 12 bucks, and if you prefer, they even have it in a Kindle edition now. I have this and Billy's book, also Visual Wrap. If you're serious about the subject they are all essentials. The Clemens book is best for beginnners, like me, gets you off to a good start.

Thanks everyone for you help. I have all of Dale Clemons books plus Billy's book and Visual Wrap software. The only problem i have is i can't load the software due to computer problem. I'll also check out the other book also. Thanks again,appreciate the help.

I usually spend about 1 - 2 1/2 hours answerring questions about Dec Wraps at the NERBs Gatherings. If oyu cna't figure it out form the 2 books oyu have, you need a hands on, a ot of guys cannot understand the books, but once they see it in person it clicks. Your othe roption is shippin gme th eblank with a blank check and let me wrap it and filin the check, lol.

Get Billy's book. That man does amazing stuff with thread.

I can assist with getting the software loaded onto your machine if required. Simply drop me an email.
