This braided stuff is amazing!

I am still a novice leatherworker and I've been using Maine Thread for over 3 years now. Mostly the .35 and .30 sizes

My one issue with their twisted cord is the wax. If you pull just a bit much, the cord loses it's color a bit near the holes. But this braided cord of awesomeness does NOT have that problem! It also brings.a more refined look to your piece. No fraying, solid cord. I used the .30 size braided.

A tip. The braided cord can be a bit troublesome when trying to get your needles through if you use dulled (no sharp point) stitching needles. Use an awl to help ya through the cord. Then you are all set!
