I'll add to the 4,000.....try this.....make a pencil mark where the end of the tube is on the cane. Make the first few wraps further down the cane than normal, approximately 7-10 mm. Instead of wrapping the thread rotate the reed to make the thread come closer to the pencil mark. Start close to where you anchored the thread or you will end up half way across the room. As you rotate the reed check the reed position and shift the reed accordingly. I still suggest using a drinking straw band over the cane. It holds it on there so you can measure etc and makes the whole procedure less awkward.
