Members Dwing8 Posted December 6, 2011 Members Report Posted December 6, 2011 Hi everybody! What's a good rule of thumb for determining how long to cut the strands to get the overall length you want on the finished project? I thought I read somewhere one and a half times the OAL you want but that didn't work out too good. I don't want to waste too much material but then I hate to wind up trying to braid little nubs there at the end. Thanks! Dano Quote

But then that waste is put to use somewhere else eventually. I always save the biggest pieces of the waste and use it later somewhere else like on button knots and stuff that is not going to take too much to make. B... Quote Best Regards, Brian Kidd
