Yes, and the " wrap" is cheaper if you do buy from farm supplies section

I don't understand why they have to be so long. You need to leave an opening big enough to turn (birth) the item, so that should be big enough to get your hand into. Anything a few inches long should work.

And yes, knitting needles would work fine. Fat needles for heavy fabric, thiner needles for thin fabric.

I bought the wrap on ebay 30 rolls to a box. My co-worker said that
this stuff was always used/needed by bird owners. None of it sold at
the Bird Expo a couple weeks ago.


As for why I want them so long because the way I work the project
that I am turning I don't keep my hand inside I want the project to
remain as flat as possible and with my hand in side it doesn't.

Every one has there own techniques for doing things sometimes what
you discover just MIGHT be helpful to others, some times not.

Yes I imagine knitting needles would work IF you are a knitter. Since
I don't knit the of wooden dowels are much cheaper for me to buy an
cut to the length that I want than buying the needles.

I like using wooden spoon handle down and bowl for handle.

For making tiny little 90 degree corners, I really like the Alex Anderson wooden tool... I glued down the other cap that covers a metal stylus. I like the Purple Thang for use at my machine - I wouldn't want anything metal.

I LOVE your idea of using the cohesive bandage for a grip. I can already envision several more uses in this way! Thanks!

I covered one of the turning tools I saved from the Fairfield stuffing.
The wrap works great. The longer size is needed when turning tubes and need to poke out the corners.

Thanks for the tip, I never would have thought of using that tape as a quilting tool. Thanks for the great tip.

Thank you for posting your great idea!

I have several knitting needles. I don't knit so they make excellent tools for turning things.
