Hello:
I've been working on Lonnie Chevrie's Gypsy Dental floss trick for quite a while and am about ready to give up. I have his DVD - have watched him probably 10 times, at least. The problem is I can't get the floss to roll up in a nice bundle like he has on the DVD. I'm using the waxed Johnson floss - same as Lonnie. I'm doing everything the same, same folding techniques that he shows, but at least half the time there are ends sticking out of my rolled up bundle of broken pieces, which is not good (for those who know the method, you need to have a compact bundle, unless your thumb and finger are HUGE). Anybody else having this problem? Any suggestions? Thanks much. Ron |

Maybe you need to try another dental floss because if the floss have enought wax, you can do the bundle very very easy, I try a lot of dental floss brands in order to find the proper one, because a lot of dental floss (with wax) do not work.

Actually I've found very usable dentfloss waxed at a one pund shop in the UK. Not only was it waxed, but it allso came in a 100 yard roll. Only downside is, that the container is not suitable, so now I'm rolling it onto a nother container for 10 yards per time. 1 £ though, that's cheap.
