: All of my cussing is internal but not really loosing it on the CF,
: just frustrated. Part of this is using and doing stuff I haven't
: used before. I've done wood, though not as nice as yours, and
: needed to try something else.

While it is possible to "weave" the ends of CF to make it appear to be one piece it's really an art doing it. Minimizing the number of places where the ends meet is easier. You can use the braided CF tubing to do this, just slice one side. If you highlight the place where the cut ends meet, it'll look like you planned it that way.
