Afternoon all,

Can anybody point me in the direction of a video or blog that explains how to make up rope coils?
I have tried, with very little success, to make these on baking foil and using watered down adhesive to stick the rope coils together and my efforts are not good enough.

Thanks in advance
Goddo

The standard method used is to put a strip of double sided tape onto a flat surface and carefully form the coils onto it, then paint diluted PVA wood glue onto the coil and leave to dry out.
