Mexican Round Braid

Recommended Posts

This is my first attemp on some scrap. I was intimidated by this braid but found it wasn't as bad as it looks.

Below is my first attempt, I was wondering if the gaps were supposed to be like that or if I need a different spacing thonging chisel or maybe different sized lace.

Chisel is 4prong 1/8 with 1/8 lace.

Also how snug should you pull the lacing

No, the gaps are not "supposed" to be there. Move your spaces closer togeather or use wider lace to fix it.

I thought the lace was 1/8 turns out to actually be 3/32 - thanks guys. I'll get a smaller chisel.
