Narrow trim ring help

[Saltheart]

After you tighten as I said above , try letting the tightened thread sit overnight to let the thread relax a bit before cutting the ends. This gives the thread the chance to comform to the tight bend around the thin blank sections too.
In fact if you do all the pulling back under the overwrap or underwrap you can do just single turn trim bands and inlays. Again , you need to plan this all out ahead of time and have the pull loops in place.

Depending on what kind of thread and color your using you could put a dab of color preserver where the tag end comes out and let it dry, kind of glues it all together to prevent unraveling. I have used this method on ocassion
