Dave at kelton Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Well done both of you easier when you have done a few. Difficult bit is making sure you cut enough paracord. Amazes me how much you use. Worth trying a different colour main line too. Don’t just stop at Bracelets. It makes great call lanyards.

chrisjpainter Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Paracord activities are a big hit with our Cub Scouts group. Bracelets, zip pullers, little men keyrings, it's all good fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houseplant Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 I need to make a game bird holder. I don't have paracord super skills, so a few granny knots and a uni knot should do me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wymberley Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 Very relaxing. What with one thing and another, during the pandemic the medics read my tea leaves in no uncertain terms so I was grounded. Dog leads first and then all sorts. The girls liked the daisy chain bracelets. It was fortunate that "jewelry" of any sort is banned at school as I had enough with 'orders' out of school hours. Then I made a mistake. Substituting the yellow for black we had a 'Devon Daisy' and we're off again. Had to knock it on the head though as the arthritis got all too much. Still got miles of it in the drawer.

Diver One Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 @wymberleyI like the idea of a dog lead, that's now on my list. It's quite addictive. Only dabbled so far zip pulls for gunslips lanyard for the cartridge extractor chinstrap affair to hold my Leather Aussie Drovers hat on with a fancy lanyard knot at one end and a very satisfying sliding 'Turks head' knot as a tensioner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
