Benz: Somewhere in the middle... Lightly waxed is preferable, haha -Sometimes the weave of unwaxed can be a little 'loose' (hard to explain) but of waxed vs. unwaxed would be my preference. -Too waxy is a real bugger. Sticky fingers when plaiting & it seems to attract dust & gunk. One way to rectify is to 'whip' it through a dry towel about a doz times, holding tight through the towel, you dig? But a little wax is good as it adds some stiffness when working & helps when trying to thread multiple strands through tiny holes."Wax on, wax off?" Experiment & be Mindful of results young grasshoppers... Tama :) |
