I checked out you tube and didn’t find any videos on wrapping flute tenons. If I missed it, could someone kindly point me in the right direction or is anyone game to post one there? Yes, there is a lot of personal opinion involved in both material choice and technique but it would sure help to see it done.
No video, but I can point to you an illustrated guide. Can’t find a current web address for Clive Catterall, but this is the archive from a year ago:
