Wes you can get any effect you want with rope dub.  The guard hairs are
stiffer & shorter than the under fur.  Causing the guard hairs to stick
out.  Ask DonO about the dubbing from hell that I sent him last year.

Subject: [VFB] Rope dub question

Hi VFB,

I have a rope dub question for Don or anyone familiar with the 
technique.

It seems to me that tying a pattern that requires pronounced guard 
hairs sticking out from the dubbing would not be possible or easily 
do-able using the rope dub technique?

It seems that as you twisted the dubbing material into a rope that the 
guard hairs would want to lie parallel to the thread?
