It's exactly the same as Farthingales sell, but a different gauge. It
is a fraction of an inch narrower, so the connectors don't hold. In a
cage hoop, which is what I originally wanted them for, this is a major
problem. It might not be so much of a problem for a farthingale, and I
may well buy some and try with glue of some kind.
Are we talking hoop boning, or corset boning? In the former case, the
steel hoop boning over here doesn't hold the tips well either. I have
found that the spiral steel corset boning holds the tips well if you use
a particular method of attaching them....don't know if you saw the link
to my tutorial earlier. I have had less success with using the tips on
the flat white enameled corset boning, but have managed to make them
stay on.
