Hi Guys,

Thanks for the many responses. In the original question, where I wrote "wire", I meant to put a slash(/) "thread", meaning one or the other. So if you wrote, as Warren P. did, "Option 1 with the following differences: I usually never use wire" it would have been the same.

Just remembered that some tyers, like Walt Dette, counter-wrapped white thread over peacock herl on Quill Gordons and some used ultrafine copper wire. Both materials served the same purpose. B Both materials served the same purpose.

Anyway, thanks for responses.

Allan
