Members Shelly Posted December 14, 2011 Author Members Report Posted December 14, 2011 I use a 12" tuperware pie safe for my strings that I'm cutting, and I store the cut/ready strings in another one...so have two for two different stages. I keep my project strings in the tuperware that I will be working out of, and I will still usually have to rewet a little before braiding, either with saddle soap or with warm water, with a quick dunk and shake off excess, then back into the humidifier for a few minutes. Then soap and braid. I strongly detest yellow soap on rawhide work - I only use white Fiebings saddle soap, but any brand will suffice, as long as it's white. I have seen some very nice braidwork that was made nasty looking by the application of lots of yellow soap! Quote Shelly
