      Well Age is something we have in common. I turned 72 in Jan and to tell you the truth I dont feel a day over 110. Getting old sucks. Glad you are getting inspiration and help from the videos. I have accomplished about as much as I can in rod building so now it is just pay forward time. Didnt used to be like that when I started. FB can be a PIA but sort of a necessary evil for me because I can reach so many more people. If you are ever in California stop by for some rod building brain storming. Door is always open here.

      I was thinking rather that using the clips with rubber glued inside ( obviously your system works and certainly not intended to be disrespectful Doc) why couldn’t the non ferrous shaft have some threads run down it just far enough to put a Nylock nut on it to tension against the magnets.hey just a humble thought

    I recently tried my first tiger wrap and it turned out pretty cool before I put finish on it. I liked how it looked with the mono wrapped opposite of the base thread when I put the finish over the mono it went under the line and distorted the patern and you could really see the line and not through it. Any thoughts?

    • @docski377
      @docski377  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Two things if you are doing a mono tiger. 1. you must put a thread in the grooves of the mono and 2 you might put a coat or two of CP so the finish cannot get under the mono or3 dont put finish over the mono. It will last a good bit of time and then all you need to do is strip the mono and do it with new mono.

    @christophermckinney984 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much for this video! It is probably the most informative on Tiger Wraps that I have seen as of yet, and you are the only one I’ve seen do the loop on the top wrap so that you could easily get at the thread to cut them and get them started. I will still probably go back and rewatch everything before attempting myself, just so I am better prepared and can more easily anticipate issues.
    What sizes of thread do you use for doing tiger wraps, and/or what size do you prefer? Would you stay away from mixing sizes?
    One question on the mono (well, actually probably a couple...). What size mono are you using to create your lens, or do you look at it with several sizes of mono (and if so, which is your “go-to?”)? Also, if you are using the mono to check out what the colors below will look like, could you wrap the mono over the bottom wrap before it has epoxy applied, or does it need the epoxy to help create the lens that the mono amplifies? (Sorry if you explained this and I missed it, I am going to rewatch it, as I watched overnight while my wife was at work and kept falling asleep).
    And lastly (for now), if you wanted to keep the mono because you liked the look of it, what a would you need to do to prepare it for epoxy? (I think I read somewhere in the comments about putting a black thread in the cracks to help seal it and then adding CP??) Also, if wanting to keep the mono, what is the best way to tie it down and anchor it, as what you used looked pretty large?
    Thank you again, I have a feeling I’m going to be bending your ear a lot, as after tiger wraps and getting more proficient in guide wraps, I want to attempt to get into attempting weaves and I’ve heard that you are one of the best.

    Great video. Question when finishing with mono do you just epoxy over it and how dose it hold up? Thinking this would be better for a beach rod because it can get bulky. Thanks from a newbie

    • @docski377
      @docski377  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      First this technique is much better on Ocean gear where weight is of no matter. Do Not put finish over the mono unless you put small thread in the grooves.. Without a thread it will turn absolutely clear and you will loose the effect. The mono holds up pretty good but it is a simple task to remove it and redo when it gets trashy.

    So, what difference does it make what color the thread is, if your just going to get rid of it?

    • @docski377
      @docski377  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually none but the size of the sacrificials can be. With people trying the technique the first few times I recommend they use the same threads just to keep the spacing right.. Good Question.

      I heat the end of the mono and flatten it with a pair of smooth jaw pliers. Shape it a little them wrap over it Like it was thread. Some of my friends have had success with super glue.

    • @docski377
      @docski377  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The size varies with many factors. Size of thread in tiger, numbers of threads in Tiger, Diameter of the rod and more. Basically I Start with 40 or 50 then work out from there. When I find something I like I then put a thread in the grooves of the mono before applying finish.

    • @docski377
      @docski377  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not entirely sure what you are asking but let me give it a try. One thing is I have to wrap over the ends of the Mono to hold it in place. Secons if I want to put finish over the mono I have put a thread in the grooves of the mono to keep the effect, if I dont do that and put finish on I lose the entire effect.

    Doc thank you for the great video, another lesson in my notebook. Great camera work as well. My question is in reference the thread size for tiger wraps, I have done one with size A and for the first time I think it came out OK. The pattern was not as intense as yours it was more mild. Which size thread do you recommend for more narrow blanks?

    • @docski377
      @docski377  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have good results with all sizes of threads. Seems the smaller and fewer the threads the more precise the pattern. However I love the diffuse look it quite attractive to me also. My go to combination lately is with 3 A threads base and two D thread top but depending of the thread company I may make changes.

    • @docski377

      Actually the top color influences the over all a lot. I am prone to using a dark color on top because it seems to outline the other colors but experimentation is the key to everything.

      @@russellpeters21 Just try this 1. wrap 3 threads from left to right, 2 light ones and one dark one. 2. next put at least 3 coats of finish on. Let last coat dry 3 days. 3. Next wrap the same 3 threads from right to left and remove the two light ones leaving the dark one. See what you get. Remove the dark one and repeat step 3 this time leave a different color threat. That should help you a little.

      @docski377  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes I do, actually I burnish both top and bottom layers which is a bit different than Scott Throop(designer of the technique). When burnishing the top layer I am careful to maintain an equal distance between threads.

      @@nelsonricardodias7682 It is a fairly simple technique of thread art utilizing what is called the Moire Effect. A base layer of 2 or more threads is wrapped on the rod simultaneously. Then several coats of finish are laid on that to form a lens. A second layer of thread is wrapped on the finish with one or more threads removed forming a gap in that layer. The upper layers thread intersects with the base layer forming patterns. These patterns appear to shift when viewed from different angles. With the Monofiliment variation of the technique the mono serves both as the upper layer and lens. Hope this helps.
