Hello all, I need some direction to find instructions on folding 9 inch silks, but particularly a fold that "locks" the silk from unfolding. For a TT Blendo. Plain instructions or reference material would be great.

If this is for performing the effect numerous times, I would suggest you just purchase more TT, and have the pre-loaded.
I have never heard of such a fold, as most people want the silk silk fold so the silk pops open. TT are easy to conceal in different place on your person. |

I remember an older magician who made balls out of silks to use in C&B, then have them dump out open for final load.
No reason for this using a TT that I can think of. However, the method is easy. Use a small crocheting hook. With the silk twisted into a tube, hold one end against the metal above the hook. Wind the silk up, ending wth the tip on top of the first one. Use the hook to pull both ends into the center. The will remain as a ball with casual handling, but a rubbing between your palms will release the ends.

Apologies, I probably didn't word my question clearly. I was looking for a method of folding/rolling a small silk so that it took up the least amount of space, and so that I didn't have to keep pressure on it to prevent it from springing open until the reveal. After re-reading through some of my searches before I made this thread, many of the references I couldn't find, but I think this mention of the coil fold in this older thread is what I'm looking for. https://themagiccafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?topic=161614
