Lever Wrap Hack
Posted: Mon Jul 19, 2021 5:02 pm
Hello Folks,
I put a D4 gGns lever wrap on my Frontier earlier in the week. The only thing that bothered me was the final stitch,
the overhand knots and the loose ends. Instructions call for the cutting of the remaining sinew thread to a quarter
inch and tuck in under the wrap itself. The sinew is easily frayed and no matter how often I tucked it in it kept popping
out, fraying and just looked bad. The fix was to put a healthy drop of hot glue into the small gap in the leather. The ends
will never fray or dislodge again.
