Hi all, I'm new to the site (very cool site, by the way!). I was wondering if anyone has any good sources for rope binding. I've been looking for a while and can't find anything satisfactory. Hope you can help me. Thanks in advance. D. Brooks |

Satisfactory in what way? LMI and Gurian come first to mine. |

Gurian if you can swing the $200 minimum. Much cheaper than LMI (about half, IIRC). I think International Violin has some pretty decent prices on this kind of stuff. |

If you are interested in making your own, here is a link to a thread on another forum  that details the step by step building of a tenor ukulele including the making of roped binding. You have to work your way through it a bit to get to the roped binding part but his method seems to be reasonable.

That is a cool thread, read it twice now. It's funny he obsessed so much about the binding being inside out. His work inside the box isn't exactly meticulous |
