Wow Mike that's very nice head gear. What did you use to darken your strings with.

Thanks Rob

This will probably gross some out. But it's darkened with redman (golden blend) chewing tobacco. I think ya can also use coffee or tea to achieve the same color. But it may not taste as good while you chew it.

Thanks for the tip Mike, now I have a good reason to take up tobacco again, I've been looking for one.

Looks good Mike! I noticed in one of the pics, you have coils of rawhide hangin up. Do you make oyu own, or do you purchace pre-cut strings?

rawhider

Thanks I was ordering it precut and then cutting it to the width I need. When I start back to braiding I'll order a side. I haven't got around to making my own rawhide yet but it's on the list.

Thank you I generally don't have very much patience. But for some weird reason I have a lot when I'm braiding.
