    I need help with braiding! I posted a request for help in the Braiding section... lets see if this works?!?

    Hello everyone, I no nothing about braiding and need some help! I am trying to learn how to make a 2 color square braid (whip?) It was made with 2 colors of paracord. 4 strands of each that doubled over a clasp making 8 strands of each color for a total of 16 strands? (I pulled the braid apart in an attempt to learn how to braid it but I failed) The finished braid formed square braid (whip like) Does ANYONE have a clue what I am talking about because obviously I have no idea! If anyone can tell me how to do this braid or even explain better what i am trying to explain I would be VERY grateful!

    Hello everyone, I am new to all of this and have been buying tools like a mad man. I purchased an 8 piece set of C.S. Osborne & Co round punches sizes 3/16 to 1 inch. in a canvas roll. I got these off of Ebay for $40.00 and they look like they have never been used. The paint is flaking a bit and very light surface rust. This may sound stupid but would you "strop" a punch? or are punches an item that you use till dull then resharpen? Should I remove the paint that is flaking? (and if so what would be the best way not to damage the tools?) Thanks for any advise! Saint

      Never done a booth but they say take lots of small items that sell for a couple bucks and bring 10 times the cost of the booth ($100 booth = $1000 worth of merchandise). Planning on trying a booth this winter in Arizona.

      Take a pic album of your work, for stuff u don't have time to make, and maybe you'll get some orders. And price tags- unless u enjoy hearing "how much is this?" hundreds of times a day. Good luck!
