Members KnotHead Posted January 3, 2011 Author Members Report Posted January 3, 2011 Ya know, I don't understand something here Miguel. You act as if I am trying to steal something from you. I have not left your name out of any of this. From day one your name has been taped to this braid. Now all of the sudden you remove photos from your FB account(s) which stand to show that your sequence is what I have been saying since page 2 of this topic. So what's the deal here? Now you don't like me at all because I don't tolerate your insults. Maybe you have some growing up to do. They do have mirrors in Spain, right? Well maybe you should take a good long hard look into one. You might find something there you don't like. It's really too bad you have this kind of arrogance. I like your work and will continue to like your work. But I don't know about you as the artist now. I have a lot of doubt in your ability to even teach as you say you do. I would think your students would be very, very few and far between because of that arrogance. But that's okay. You continue in the path you go. I'll take my path and call it all good.

Members roo4u Posted January 3, 2011 Members Report Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) well said brian, i to have been braiding for over twenty years, there is so much to learn. ok get this straight....ortega didnt invent any new braids or knots he just composed his braiding in a different way, and his braiding was perfect....just because you are creative with your braiding and use knots and braids in different combinations doesnt mean you are inventing anything. nate is learning the argentine style now....but like many of us he is self taught with only bruce grants books to guide his beginnings. his artistry comes from the perfection, and the combinations of braids and knots from various places. most of the braiders i know of are very humble about their skill and believe there is always something to learn and someone who is better. you are using the spanish names for those knots what are the english names cuz i know a variety of knots...i can build a lomo de yacare or in english- crocodile ridge knot..

Members roo4u Posted January 3, 2011 Members Report Posted January 3, 2011 miguel if you are not willing to help and teach then what are you doing here? that is what this site is all about. if all you are going to do is belittle brian for his happiness at learning a new technique, well we really dont need that kind of attitude here. so please take it elsewhere. my mom always said if you cant say something nice dont say anything at all!

Members miguelm Posted January 3, 2011 Members Report Posted January 3, 2011 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, Quote
Members KnotHead Posted January 3, 2011 Author Members Report Posted January 3, 2011 Now that is childish. So the post goes to show. Just for your info. I wont be tolerating anymore of your insults. I have tried to reason with you. But you wont reason at all. Floor open now. Brian... Quote Best Regards, Brian Kidd
Members miguelm Posted January 3, 2011 Members Report Posted January 3, 2011 ok...well you can tell yourself that your inventing things but i sincerely doubt it. i have seen online braiding of some of the greatest braiders in the world, most of them from argentina, and the detail and fine techniques are amazing. your work is good but not of the same quality. take a look at the whip that whipit just posted, or the work of nate wald or armando deferrari. the best part of these peoples talent...they are very nice and willing to share their knowledge with any who want to learn. artistry in braiding is more about perfection and composition than an ego thinking they are doing better than anyone else can. 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.
