Big Mat Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Yes i have, i have a board at the length i like with two swivel studs in it, one at each end, then i set up and weave inbetween. This is the only photo i have of mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 How many meters of paracord makes a sling like that Mat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mat Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 How many meters of paracord makes a sling like that Mat? I think i bought a 100ft length of paracord for it, probably only used 80ftish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Not as much as I thought to be honest. Any chance of a better picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll dig it out of whereever its hiding and take a few photos, its done a hard seasons fowling and has stood up to it well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mat Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 You can see at the ends where i have not pushed the weave up together properly, i probably could have got a few more rows in. Its a funny colour because its still muddy from the marsh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Looks good mate, thanks for the pic. I'll have a go myself when I get hold of some black paracord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mat Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 I think i was paying about £6.50 for a 100ft last time i bought some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 I can get it for a similar price I think. I'll look in springfields army stores next time I'm passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
