oltoot Report post Posted October 6, 2015 very nice, I would offer one observation from experience. On the first ones that I did I worked hard to get the ends of the long buttons squared up like yours and then found that they were more susceptible to wear and catching on things so I quit trying to be different and started making those long buttons tapered like everyone else with much better results. But I can testify that it is harder to get them neatly squared than tapered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Likla Report post Posted October 6, 2015 Thank you oltoot. I bought Grant's book 20+ years ago and started to teach my selv the mystery of braiding. It was difficult, but I learned it by try and error. I didnt know about tapering knots with electrical tape before i saw it on this site. I sometimes have been using thin leatherstraps. I will try it the next time and I see your point in why to do it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
