The best material for wrapping a pesi?

I once received the advise to put some wax (furniture-wax/bees-wax) on the wrapping, in order to avoid it taking up moisture and thus expanding.

That was advised in combination with hemp - wire.
The hemp wire adsorbs the wax, but still has a rough texture.

Good luck !

Hi All

What works for me is some old batik cloth.
use an small band (1 or 1.5 cm wide) Twist the batikband around the peksi till it fits the handle.(not to firm)
Keep in mind to rotate the handle in the same direction like u did the batikband.(cw)
When you dismount the handle use the same rotation.(cw)
