The arts & crafts is inseparable from the rope, and different rope have different effects on the Arts & Crafts. We usually see more rope, the following will give you a brief description.
Generally, the friction of new rope is high, so you need to choose a more wear-resistant rope to be able to. Generally speaking, you can use plain rope, which is also divided into two kinds, elastic and non-elastic. Among the many Buddhist Dharma tools, it is also most common to string beads with plain rope. This not only reflects the respect for the Buddha, but also shows the low profile and simplicity of the heart of the collectors who love wooden art & craft.
In addition, the five-color rope is also optional, this rope looks Tibetan style, many people are more like, very suitable for long strings, but this has no elasticity, so when tying a knot can be a flat knot, so you can adjust. Five-color rope in our country has many years of history, according to the canonical record, the colorful rope tied in the wrist or arm can also avoid evil and exorcise the devil, do not catch disease.
Jade this category is mainly crystal elastic rope, first of all, the hole of this category is small, crystal rope the thinnest can reach 0.6mm, can say again small hole can be used. But this kind of rope can't often pull, also don't in the sun, to avoid accelerated aging.
Wooden strings are mostly string, the friction of wooden strings is large, you can choose the plain rope, more resistant to use, the color can also be chosen, in addition, there are nylon and stick thread are good. Like a class of bodhi, the orifice is generally larger, with nylon elastic rope, the middle of this rope is a leather band, wrapped with a layer of nylon cloth, more durable.
Main reasons: 1. These ropes feel more fragile for new beads. The friction of new beads is very strong and the rope can easily break. Second, the main reason to change the new string is to allow yourself to avoid embarrassing scenarios and endless regrets. For example, a string of jade beads on the neck, after the rope broke, scattered all over the ground, so is not embarrassing, and beads everywhere bubble, not necessarily can be found, some beads may have damage, so it is not worth the loss. Third, often replace the string, help the change of the orifice, so that the orifice is smoother, but also like the orifice of old objects, looks very historical.
