I am going to attempt to post step by step instructions of how I wrap my patterns.  The pictures show the progression of the pattern, each pass, and you will see how the wrap is formed. I'll add comments and try to explain what is going on and what I was thinking.

VisualWRAP Script for the wrap - http://www.visualwrap.com/misc/Billy40/images/4Points_demo.vwx

This wrap was created with Vizwrap by Tom Wombold, and I picked it up in Cam Clark's book of Wraps. For those who don't know who Cam is, he's truly a legend of Rodbuilding, was the Editor (or) Publisher of  Rodcrafter's Journal, and is one of the nicest gentlemen you'll ever meet. I was fortunate for him to allow me to pry into his notebooks which contained all sorts of Tape Replica's and photos of wraps. I scribbled down as much as I could, and have used Vizwrap to create some of what I saw in his books. My hat's off to the guys who used Tape Replica's.

Anyway, the sequence to his pattern is: Black Box in, Silver outside adjacent box out, and Red Outer Box out +1. When the arms are formed to the size you want, close the outer box with Red,  then fill in the Black IN box with 1 Black thread, then close with Red.

2nd Pass. Use sufficient tension to hold the threads in place, not too tight because they will be packed to death, and they will pop if too tight, not too loose or they will "bubble" up when other threads are wound over them.

+4 for the background

Now the Red threads are not staying in place. This is caused by the Black and Silver threads from the first 4 passes. They cross over each other, and make a small ramp which the Red threads slide off. Notice how only the first Red thread is a gap, the subsequent ones are all pretty much close together.

Still haven't packed once.

Now I have to pack, the Silver is out of space, and the Red threads are getting way out of hand.
I take my metal thread tool from Clemens (which is way too sharp once again - note to self!!!) and push each crossover point. I start with the Red, push them all into the center of the pattern to make room while wrapping OUT. I go in one direction, then the other, working slowly. There are quite a few tricks Ive figured out to get the threads to stay put, nice and TIGHT, which I will let out of the bag with photos at a later date.

I fully packed the pattern on the right, and left the pattern on the left alone so you can see the difference. I wouldn't normally do this.

This shows the end and top of the wrap after 7 passes.  I wrap backwards, from the tip to the butt, and I just turn the thread around at the foregrip. I HATE wrapping off the foregrip, I have all sorts of tension problems, gaps in the first pattern, and even mess up the foregrip. Here, I have a 25 millimeter turn around, for a 200 thread pattern. You'll see at the end of this thread, this is ample room for the turn around and the tie off for ANY wrap you do.

The tip tie off has a piece of paper towel taped to the blank, then a layer of double stick tape over this. This makes it easier to remove at the end when cutting it off the blank. For this entire wrap, I only used 3 pieces of double stick tape, and have no problem cutting it off the blank because of the paper towel.

+9 -  First picture shows before packing, when it seems as if a few more threads will close the wrap up.
The second shows after packing.  If you look closely, you can see the Silver thread on the left pattern has been mangled along with Black threads (my tool slipped when I was packing the Black threads Out) , and a Red thread sticking up on the right, and several fuzzy, torn Red threads throughout the wrap.

Also notice the spacing is almost symetrical which means I won't have too many problems closing the pattern up.

Another few passes of the Red thread on the inside, working my way to the completion of the pattern. For the first time, you can see what it will look like.

Almost there

Dave - that is great!!! That verifies what I said - I left too much space for the Red threads, and made the wrap too big.

Total time to wrap the pattern: 9 hours.
Total time to wrap the pattern in Vizwrap: 15 minutes - plus I changed teh colors to all different combinations, and found this one looked the best.  That took 4 minutes.  Gotta love it!!
