Hi DB.

For my most recent build, I just realised the strips of binding I have are about 5cm short of going the whole way around. This means I need to put a join in somewhere.

Any advice on A. where the join should go and B. how to minimise the appearance of the join so it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb when I stain the sucker black?

Or should I just suck it up and try to find some longer strips? (Everything I can find seems to be a standard of 5ft/1650mm long)

This one btw.
