	Polish plait - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Polish plait is typically a (sometimes large) head of hair, made of a hard impenetrable mass of keratin fibers permanently cemented together with dried pus, blood, old lice egg-casings and dirt.
		A growing plait was supposed to take the illness "out" of the body, and therefore it was rarely cut off; in addition, the belief that a cut-off plait could avenge itself and bring an even greater illness discouraged some from attacking it.
		Plaits were even categorized in a quite sophisticated way; there were plaits "male" and "female", "inner" and "outer", "noble" and "fake", "proper" and "parasitical".

	Whip Information (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		It's fast and accurate especially when braided in 16 or higher plait (the higher the number of strands generally indicates greater accuracy) the drawback is that when the cracker wears down to the braided leather it has to be replaced ($20) but that shouldn't happen for 2-5yrs depending on usage.
		Plait describes the number of strands plaited together to form the outermost layer of the whip.
		On wellbuilt whips the core may be the lead filled leather shotbagof a snakewhip, or the 4 or 6 plait miniwhip plaited over a spring steel, cane or fiberglass handle of a bullwhip or the narrow tightly rolled and tapered kangaroo or redhide core of a stock whip.

	Plaiting a Mane
		Plait down as far as you can and then wrap the thread round the end of the plait and secure it with a half-hitch knot.
		before plaiting or banding you should thin your horses hair (the breed calls for a natural mane) the mane should only be 2-3inches long from the crest and if you haven't had the to proper thin and cut the mane instead of useing scissors you can get your clippers out.
		Changing the subject slightly, in relation to the french plait on the mane i think that it is meant to slope down the neck because it is meant to show off the shape of your horse's neck or is that just some false info.

	Hertfordshire Genealogy: Occupations: Straw Plait
		In the eighteenth and early nineteenth century London was undoubtedly the chief hat manufacturing centre, and the presence of the Herts/Beds plaiting area 20 to 30 miles away, close to Watling Street was probably an important factor, and it may well be that wheat straw grown on chalk was of better quality.
		At a time when the average Hertfordshire agricultural wage was between 10s and 12s a week, straw plaiting wives could earn appreciably more than their husbands and children’s contributions to the family income were considerable.
		The end of the industry was foreshadowed when, in 1865, cheap foreign plait was imported from the far east and the industry was virtually extinct by the beginning of the twentieth century.
