Attaching corrugated tubing to falls?

Post by CherryLex » Thu Oct 09, 2008 1:06 pm

I've only used it a handful of times and am making a set of falls for a friend. I've attached the tubing by sewing it on to the elastic with some pretty heavy duty thread but it seems like the thread could rip through the tubing pretty easily.
Does anyone have any advice with this?
Is there a better method of attaching?

bradel a hole in and put rexlace through and attach the rexlace to the elastic with a knot- that is what I did anyway!

Make small holes on both sides of the tubing and tie it onto the lace with a small cable tie.
