Tool of the Week (week 43) Wrap A Round This info came from a website called shopfloortalk. Wrap-A-Round is a little tough to get the hang of at first. I know this is obvious but the first step is to mark the length you need. The second step is to position the wrap around, you drape the wrap around over the pipe with the tongue (free end) pointing towards you a little away from the mark. Place your non-dominate hand in position to keep it from moving. Use your dominate hand to wrap the rolled end end under the pipe, up and over the tongue, loosely. Lay the rolled end over the tongue, then take some of the slack out of it while you are aligning the edges and the mark. Finish tightening the wrap around while keeping one edge on the mark. The edges of the wrap around should be even when it is straight on the pipe. The overlap of the wrap around depends on the size of the pipe but you do need overlap. Around a quarter of the pipe is about the minimum for overlap. Do not crease the wrap around while using it, they break off once creased. It gets easier to use the wrap around with practice. I will have to get help to take pictures of the process as you need both hands to install it correctly.
