 Re: Nylon vs Silk Thread
Author: wrowand

I've tried both FF nylon and silk. I prefer nylon. The silk doesn't stretch, so when the cane under the string shrinks I have found that reeds can start to leak underneath the thread and then I need to add more beeswax to seal the leaks. I don't have this problem with nylon.
