By pulling the hair to try to remove the plugs, you’re only wedging it in harder (that’s the purpose of the plugs). Why don’t you pry out the plugs from behind, in reverse of how they are installed? Also, the plugs that you removed from the tip and frog appeared to be in good condition, so was there a reason that you didn’t reuse them?
Thank you for the comment. I do agree that my method in ths video isn't the best one. I have since acquired updated knowledge and might do an improved video in the future.

What kind of wood do you use for the wedges?
The wood I used here was maple.
@@violinshop Maple also for the spreader wedge? Personally I tend to do a softer wood for the spreader.
At around 14:00 you said binding the hair at 5 centimeters from the edge. Should it be 5mm instead? Thanks
Oops. You're right! Thanks for pointing it out.
@@violinshop thank you. Your video is very informative. 🙏
Thanks for sharing. Very educational.
Glad you liked it!
