Thanks
Thanks for the link Detlef, this is very helpful...now to learn to plait silver wire.
Hi Battara, images of the entire barong will only lead to discussion on the barong, while for now I am wanting to discuss some resto tips. Once it is all done in the coming months I'll look to posting it. Gavin |

I will use silver wire but I want to braid/plait it around a section of the hilt...a process I am not familiar with...I might twist the wire before I have a go to add a little extra bling to it but I should learn the method first.
