Members Spence Posted December 2, 2009 Members Report Posted December 2, 2009 I don't know diddly about bosals, but the braiding has come a long way. Knots look great too. As to size and spacing - that's for someone else. Quote Spence Mendoza, TX, USA
Members megabit Posted December 4, 2009 Author Members Report Posted December 4, 2009 Progress continues here is the nose button ground work build up about half done: And the build up about done but for the guidelines: Quote
Members megabit Posted December 13, 2009 Author Members Report Posted December 13, 2009 Well I have the nose button on. It isn't perfect, but it doesn't looktoo bad for my first one. I wish my strings were about 1/32 to 1/16smaller. Here are a couple of pics, what do you guys think? Here is a progress picture of the nose button. Here it the nose button done. Quote
Members entiendo Posted December 13, 2009 Members Report Posted December 13, 2009 Well I don't know what you should do but your braiding has come so far I can't help but to tell you how nice everything looks. Well maybe I should suggest something...Leave it!! It's beautiful. If it's not perfect you make the improvements on the next one. Quote
Members megabit Posted December 20, 2009 Author Members Report Posted December 20, 2009 Well I guess I need to get started on the heel knot now. Hell this thing is almost done. :D Quote
Members megabit Posted December 20, 2009 Author Members Report Posted December 20, 2009 Another step closer. Quote
Members 8thsinner Posted December 20, 2009 Members Report Posted December 20, 2009 Thats a nice little walk through so far, And the braiding looks to be getting better and better as the pictures pile on. I think you might wanna go over the small knots witha different knot though, beside the long knot with smaller strings it looks a little out of place to me. I also have to say I love your antler marlin spike, I just picked up a nice antler myself and was thinking about something similar, Your fid looks good too. Hurry on with the heel knot and show us the finished product. Quote Doing the right thing is bleeding for the cause. Website Facebook
Members rawhide1 Posted December 20, 2009 Members Report Posted December 20, 2009 megabit The bosal is coming along great. I have to agree with everyone else on seeing the improvement in your braiding and knots. Keep up the good work. Mike Quote
Members megabit Posted December 22, 2009 Author Members Report Posted December 22, 2009 It is done! Well maybe I may add a Spanish ring above the heel knot if it proves to take too many wraps.(It is a little longer than planned.) Closeup on the heel knot: Quote
