Another important thing is make right, So I dedicate a minimum of six hours each knot. To make it perfect. strands: I make a bevel 45 degree, after splitter after bevel 30 degree after again splitter. soap: I usually do a mixture of oil ox and glicerin soap and wallnut oil, also sometimes ad to the mix cow fat. http://www.secretosdelcuero.blogspot.com

well, for my technique use to a variety of diferent materials of ecological origen always. ( bone, wood, wool grease....), not is only braiding. Almost of my braids are made with spnanish horsehide, also make little cowhide, snake, ostrich, and kangaroo. mix different techniques of saddle maker.... and use 3 cutter splitter diferent, and 3 cutter beveler different. depending of the job. don´t cut the skin in a circle, cut with scissor, but using them as blade like a tailor. and use strings of 1 oz and 1/22 inch for the knot and 1 oz 1/20 inch, 1/10inch for the braid....

to give heat to the braid. To leave some hours near to fireplace or under sun in the summer. But the sun the shadows a bit. Also the strings have to be very very slim. 1 oz is right

awesome work.

hello stormdrame, I like your work, wiht round rope leather.

you need one elastic leather, for example cow hide oil tanned, goat or little horse hide. the kangaroo is to much strong and not possible this way. Also need water mold, as the technique of leather mask, this part is more boring but more artistic, to tigthen the braid. In summary this is the technique: 1- two braid 8 strand box.... 2- sewn two side. 3- water mold. 4- heat.

well, this braid only is two braid of 8 strands, box pattern, sewn in the the middle in two sides, by argentine technique. it´s very simple and easy. zig-zag sewing. all begginer should know. it the very nice and elegant technique of all braider of Argentina.

you think you take my work and gutted, is my work, my life, the bread of my childs. you can´t gutted my work. Speak of your work, of the work another person, but you can´t speak of my work. best regards

this are artits of rawhide. you dont know the leather braiding artits?? bosal, and romals reins whips .....semper eadem..... You know anybody to make micro braiding with leather?, leather jewelry maybe. 8 bight in 1/2 inch. is impossible 8 bight 4 interweave in 1/2 inch.. 10 m of strands in to knot of 1 inch also is impossible. best regards.

very nice braid! Brain, you are a very master.. I love you nice work. this is all that you want to hear. I´m not to teach you anything. you started this topic just to find my technique. But Is only a very old braid used for thousands and thousands of braiders. I haven´t no idea of braiding. In this forum are all teacher to learn to make very nice bosal and romal reins and awesome whips, perfect and clean work, wonderful.worthy of the TCAA best regards,

this is the name to argentine knot you can see in Trenzas Gauchas book and Hilario Faudone Book

Brian, you want to dicover one old braid with make belt here in spain. So I find it very funny, maybe becouse young and joker. I read in the khww John said. this braid is very, very easy, you had to have for something more difficult. maybe a Barquero knot, de triple armadura. or a knot " lomo de yacare"

Hilario Faudone invented many knot for rawhide. Pablo Lozano invent their own braid and knot. Luis ortega invented his own technique. Luis Alberto Flores also invented own knot of rawhide, Martin Gomez also invented..... These are the best braider. I also invented my own knot adapted to my own technique. Bruce Grant learn of ""Luis Alberto flores""""", Also teach to Nate wald, Leland Hesley and Ron Edwars. Luis Ortega learn of Spanish braider, in California If Nate wald tell you that he has invented to knot......

there is a difference between the artist that could invent, and amoung those who can only copy. I invite you to copy to some of my knot of 24 bight. or my knot not finish of 7 strand you can see in my blog

under 2, over 2 under 2. for 12 strand round braid, under 2, over 2 under 2 over 2 for 16 strands round braid and under 2 over 2 under 2 over 2 under 2 for 20 strands, under 2 over2 under 2 over 2 under 2 over 2 for 24 strands round braid. under 2, over 2 under 1 for 10 strands round braid, under 2, over 2, under 2 over 2 under 1 for 18 round braid, under 2 over 2 under 2 over 2 under 2 over 2 under 1 for 26............ is the same that 8 box braid. under 2 over 2.

Leather braiding is my job. I after much work and practice I have invented many braids, knots and techniques, think you can make and copy everithing you want? you need lots practique, you have not shown my work, one has tried, gutted. I also read in your site. I teach a lot of people but not to anyone.
