Hello guys. I was wondering where everyone gets their velvet cord/tubing for Greg Wilson's Ring Leader. There are a few threads on this but many of them have links that no longer work. I got mine from the following link. I tried Hobby Lobby, Micheals, and Jo Ann Fabrics and none had it. I finally got mine from here. Do you think it will work good and where do you get yours. Also what length do you use

Ironically, I was looking at the same thing last night.
The site's URLs sometimes have special characters, e.g. a service mark and a troublesome quotation mark, that the BBCode doesn't handle. If you're interested in looking, I'm afraid you'll have to manually search for "velvet tubing" at https://www.herrschners.com/home.do?selectedTab=Category%202 |

Since Herrschners doesn't play nice, I also found this source: 12 yard reel of black Wrights Velvet Tubing - 3/8"
Manufacturer: Wrights Item #: MR1866282031 http://www.jkmribbon.com/Store/product/w......-403.htm This product is what I'm leaning toward, but advice is always appreciated. |

When I purchased this product many moons ago ( in fact it was in video format ) it actually came with a velvet cord and practice ring.

Hi, only a question: is it elastic this velvet tubing? I ask that because here in Italy I can find only elastic velvet tubing!
thank you |

The stuff I got didn't have a core and isn't elastic I like it

I got 1 from Mr. Barnowsky.
Is it just me or is it thicker that what Greg Wilson uses? And there's a core? Do you guys remove the core?

I use Larry Barnowsky's velvet rope for finger ring and harness ring effects. I have one in red and one in white. I leave the cores in.

I use a piece that's about 3.5 feet long and then tuck the ends. It works great for me but you'll just have to start there and see how it feels
