Super User clayton86 Posted February 18, 2015 Super User Posted February 18, 2015 Been looking at all these fancy weaves on some custom rods and want to try to do it but it looks super intimidating. That and the kit to start or what ever it is is expensive. Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Weaving is extremely time consuming and tedious imp. There are so many other decorative techniques that I don't get into thread art too much. Read the tutorials on rod building sites. A chevron or simple cross wrap is manageable to start. 1 Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted February 18, 2015 Author Super User Posted February 18, 2015 That's all I was interested in was a cross patern 1 Quote
BadBassWV Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 The Weaving loom is around 45.00 on Mudhole. In the next few weeks, I think I'll bite the bullet and give it a try. Quote
BadBassWV Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Do a search on Youtube, I think there are several that show how to do a cross pattern. Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Basically you find 0 and put evenly spaced marks equal to the blank dia. Go to 180 and do the same starting half way between the first mark. Wrap up and down crossing at the marks. It's more involved than a post here can do justice. Look for a tutorial and let me know if you need direction. Quote
