In the videos it looks like the thread that is used for skinning is different that the lashing sinew. Any suggestions on what works best.

A lot of people use sinew and there is nothing wrong with it. I used a braided polyester that has no wax coating. I have not been able to find anything in small spools to resell yet. You might could find a braided fishing line, this is very similar to what I have seen for fishing.

Unwaxed dental floss works great for sewing the skins when using ballistic nylon. Strong and cheap. Have never used dacron fabric so don't know if the floss would do the trick.
