J.P. Timberlake's "Stix & Bones" design. I think this is the most comfortable spinning handle design I have ever built. Large slide ring, 20mm skeleton, very little OD removed from cork. Had fun with the checkers too! -

FishHawk red, garnet,& blue. Gudebrod glitzy gold all Size "D" This is the pattern test wrap and it came out great so I elected to keep for a display. The silhouette pattern may be a better way to go for this one. I'll have to wrap that one soon. -

The Great Golden Shark can only be found roaming off the coast of Woolly Bugger Island. This small island near Ireland is the home of Leprechauns. For thousands of years the leperchauns ahve been tossing golden coins to the Great White sharks that always harrass their fishing grounds hoping to appease the gods a get the sharks to leave them be. Thus this species of Great White shark have developed a nice golden tone to their skin. Threads are FishHawk Silk size "D" -
I little different type photo post shows some of the journey as well as final result. I hope those who have not seen weaving get an idea of how they are done. Threads are both FishHawk silk size "D" 89 design threads by 177 rod turns and the dragon is approx. 50mm long and 21mm wide. The entire weave is about 3 3/4in long from end to end -
White Shark weave done with FishHawk size "A" metalic. SP5 vari., black, & green. Not happy with the gapping. Still having issues weaving with metalics but learning with each new wrap. I'm very happy with the FishHawk brand threads!
