Steps 6 - 8. It's pretty much the same for any lacing technique. If you're only going through one piece of leather, then you can cut a slit in the edge to make a pocket for the lace to sit it, but make sure your leather is thick enough to do that first.

If small (8-13 inches) one full roll should be sufficient for a medium-large lace. Smaller lace and shorter hole pattern may take more. I would get two rolls just in case, especially if you want to re-lace, or begin a new seat, or project, later on.

thanks, 9 x the laced length worked for the mexican round braid.

I used 1/4" Roo 3/8" hole spacing on my seat

I cut lace lengths at my arms span about 1.5 yds
