    Default Chenille Body Wrap!


    When you use chenille to single wrap the jig body do you guys usually overlap the chenille or bring each revolution close to each other.

    As tight as possible which usually means overlap.

    Thanks Skip,that makes sense! I was not putting very much tension on my wrap.

    I make them as close and tight as I can without making lumps. Kind of like you don't want lumps in your gravy, LOL!

    I only wrap a single layer and do not overlap. I do concentrate on wrapping tightly and keeping each wrap up tight to the previous wrap. Sometimes you have to use a larger chenille with more bulk to obtain the results you are trying to achieve.
