I've been curious for awhile how people finished the ends of round braids to look professional, I never thought it could be this easy! Thanks for making this video, I found it to be very helpful.

Very helpful information ~ thx! I like to use magnetic ends for my bracelets/necklaces so I'll have to tweak a few things before trying it on my next piece. Thanks again!!!

You should use a whipping knot to finish the ends, not just wrap and tie off. A whipping knot will be more secure in the long run and, if you do not currently have your endcaps with you, using a real knot will keep the thing together until you do. ESPECIALLY if you like to 'dry fit' and test endcaps. Also, a stronger glue than HypoCement should be used.
