So it has been a while since I wrapped anything and am getting back into it.
I have a casting blank that I am wrapping for my daughter. I am doing a cross wrap with an underwrap. I marked it out more than once lol. I have an axis on the top and an axis on the bottom. It did take a bit to remember which direction to go, best way to hold the thread, whether I was wrapping up or down etc. What I didnt realize was that using these markings I actually have two up and two down to complete "1" symmetrical wrap. What this means is that it was easy to lose my place when I was using similar colors. Anybody have some tips on keeping track of this that might make it easier?

Thanks.. I think my brain was a bit foggy causing me to lose track.
First I have done in a while but didnt come out too bad. Pic does not do the colors justice. [www.rodbuilding.org] Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
