Subject: RE: [VFB] Guderbrod Thread
Question
I
always add a tiny dab of head cement either way, but just vary the type
of finishing knot and you should find one that suits your tying style. I
am not picky but don't seem to have many problems. Either way, when
I finish a bunch I just do the dab.

Folks: It's probably something a "rookie tier"
like myself is doing wrong, but when Nick brought up Guderbrod thread
yesterday I think it was..Well, I tried that brand, and I CANNOT get the
whip finish knot NOT to unravel.. No matter if I whip finish 3-4-5-6 etc
rounds, if I snipped off the thread really close, it (the knot) would come
unraveled, like some of the nylon ropes that there are that just will not
hold a knot..Like it has more wax than it needed??? So, I have been using
Uni Thread and Danville's with no problems..The thread (The Guderbrod)
"feels" like great thread, so, am i doing something wrong??? Cause I have a
few spools and hate to see anything go to waste, Thanks, Chuck
