Just a small detail really and admittedly I wish I could have found a cleaner way to finish the knots at the rear - they're not that bad really but the purist in me would have liked them invisible - and they're 'knot', quite.

Tama :)

Here is a 4mm thick "arm" I drilled a 2mm hole into and wrapped the band around sticking the loose ends through, one from each side, managing to tie one overhand knot "In the hole" cutting off the ends and searing them as close as I dared. Then maneuvered the bands to cover the holes. You can still see the ends but not quite as much it also acts to prevent the bands from slipping down the arm. It isn't a Double knot but it seems to be holding fine.
Here you can see it with the threads spread out showing the hole

And here is the band all placed back in order and looking as it should.
