  • Looks great but DAYUM, it must have taken forever! You should sell them on ebay.

  • very nice tuto, super good music!

  • @TyingItAllTogether where can u get those "lines/ropes" you used to tie those knots?

  • hes really awesome

  • Спасибо большое!!!

    Классный мастер-класс!!! Все понятно!!!

  • How much cord (cm / m) would I need to make a total of 100cm of this Bar?

  • How do you finish off the end? I was thinking of how to taper it but I have no idea of how that would be done.

  • Comment removed

  • Great instructions. Only wish you could say how much to use for a larger item. but LOVED the instructions they were very helpful. Thanx

  • Got a great idea for a new belt :D

  • it is awesome. I want to know How much rope should I use to do as you did in the video?

    thanks

  • hi, very nice!!! I just started macrame, and i wonder how to start doing a curtain, Have not found any video on it!!! thanks

  • To finish, I would tie either one large half hitch knot with all of the cords together or maybe two/three smaller half hitch knots or you could do all three and make a triangle end. I suppose it depends how decretive you want it to look.

    If your worried about these coming unravelled when used as an item such as a shotgun sling that is carrying an important weight (thinking gun safety here), you could sew a hidden stitch or two through each knot used to finish it.

  • how much cordage did you use

  • Great close look but would like to have seen how the finished it to keep from unraveling. Singeing i

  • This is great. I am making belts for the 6 adult males in our family for Christmas and this helped me tremendously!

  • What would be the best way to terminate it for a belt?

  • Almost forgot... you might want to take a couple advil, aspirin, whatever, for the ensuing headache. ;) But again, well worth it! Thanks TIAT!

  • ORALE QUE BUEN JALE !!!

  • how much cord is needed to make a bracelet?

  • yould you be able to make this using 4 pieces of cord instead of 3 to make it a little wider? and if you can how much would the process change?

  • * q * <--- me in real life

  • I apologize, but still can’t understand how you finish this perfect job. Looking forward to see it thru video. Thank you!!!

  • Hi did none of you ever think of using a loom instead of braiding paracord by hand? I am really not so much into sitting there for hours to do that, if I know that there are devices that could help me save a lot of time, while I have to be less skillfull...

    I think paracord is really a great item to carry with you every day and I thought about weaving bigger things like a belt - doing that by hand would take way to much time... - so could someone help me to find the right kind of loom for that?

  • @vitopetre if cant spare the time to do it by hand then dont do it the point of doing it by hand it simple this is an art form. picaso never used a device do do his work. the paracord here is canvas while the knots are the brushes

  • @ajgtwnjt - you don't get my point.

    I know that you can do knots, weaving and other handcraft and regard it art. And I respect that and I especially respect the people who perform this art with devotion - no doubt about that.

    The thing is: Not everyone is a Picasso, most people have other talents and not so much time to practice this art.

    I already did some of those bracelets by hand, but I want to produce larger items, like I said and building or using devices is some kind of art as well...

  • @ajgtwnjt and by the way:

    YOUR POINT is the art weaving.

    MY POINT is to be able to carry a big amount of paracord with me, in a compact and not disturbing way.

  • As soupwell has said, knowing the ratio of strand length to the length of the finished item would be really handy. I want to make a rifle sling using this method but don't want to get a couple of hours in and discover that the whole thing is too short! :-)

  • @calverz I made a sling for my shotgun and it came out to be a foot per inch for each piece PLUS the desired length of your sling. For example, my sling is 42 inches long, so add 42 inches, plus an additional 2 inches (to account for wraps on sling harness) plus one foot of paracord per inch of weave for each of the three pieces. Never done this before and it took me about an hour start to finish. Took my time, but it came out perfect and well worth the time and trouble. Good luck!

  • @MrPrep4Life

    So, is that essentially three 50 ft lengths of paracord, or three 100 ft lengths of paracord to make a 5 foot sling or belt?

  • @trevormcm If you tie the bar as shown in the video to a finished length of 60 inches, your lengths will be as follows, the center color will require 61 feet of paracord, while each of the outer colors will need 50 feet of paracord. The center color needs a little more due to the intricacy of the stitch between both outer colors.

    these lengths are based on my using 550, 7 strand paracord for my shotgun sling. There should be a little left over... but not much. Better too much than not enough :)

  • practice makes perfection

  • what is the ratio of total paracord length to final strap length? Thinking of using this as a carry strap for a hiking first aid/survival kit bag.

  • wtf so hardddddddd cant do it :'(

  • @SuperEpic92 do you do hemp? because its doing two square knots. the very basic knot in making hemp things. just puting two togeather to make one big square knot.

  • where do u but the rope ????

  • this is hard. i keep getting confussed

  • any way to adapt a king cobra weave over this on both sides?

  • @cLaX1227 Seems like that would be pretty hard to me. Wouldn't the king cobra have to go over and through the middle? I guess if you used a needle you prolly could.

  • @Raven1024 That's What I'm Saying, But i can't seem to find the exact method by myself

  • that would make an awesome belt

  • very simple, thanks for vid

  • Great video. Love the tunes. Who is it? Love abstract techno trance. Lol. Gonna give yhis braid a try. Thanks for the video!!

  • the background music was annoying and distracting.....it was so repetitive.

  • how much chord would be used to make a full rifle sling?

  • google.?

  • where do i get the supplies to do this?

    and im wanting to make a belt would this be the right knot pattern to do that or is it too thin?

  • nice

  • OK, I agree this guy knows his stuff. I agree he goes step by step. Speed...well he needs to slow down and get his hands out of the way sometimes. By the time I tighten down one step I look up and he is three steps ahead of me. On an easy knot like the cobra that speed is fine. This is more complicated and takes a few times to get it down. I've made plenty of paracord belts, anklets and bracelets. I've never had to watch and re-watch as many times as I did with this one.

  • @pukingfrosty just stop the video and catch up with the knotting

  • JD, i have made so many cool ties thanks to you. You're videos are so awesome! Keep up the good work and thank you so much for what you do! Be blessed!

  • Cool. Hopping to make one tomorrow.

  • how much cord would u use if u were making it 45 inches long?

  • how wide does this knot turn out to be? im going to try this with 6mm leather cord.

    in your opinion would that make the know too wide or bulky?

  • Where do u buy ur paracord from?

  • JD-TIAT, I have been watchin ur vids for a long time. U do a wonderful job explaining and showing whats going on. Keep up the Awsome work, may God bless you!

  • @koocatable - Thank you. *smile*

  • @TyingItAllTogether What would be a good design to make a belt with? My little brother has been wanting a paracord belt and his birthday is coming up. Thanks in advance!

  • how would you tie the other end off... i'm trying make a rifle sling with this knot

  • =))=))=))

  • if you have a welder or know some one who does you can soder some little bumps on the ring to keep your cord seprate when tying

  • is there a way to tie this with a knot on one end and a loop on the other? im trying to make a bracelet like this but i dont have buckles:/

  • Thank You so much , these are awesome.....!!!!

  • yeah what do you do to tie it off???

  • @Ridered367 I've seen a bunch of these videos and most of them don't tell you how. Drives me nuts.

  • It's incredibly easy to follow without written or spoken directions. He uses great colors and moves at just the right pace to follow along on your own piece. Once you've done a pass or two, pretty easy to figure out from there on your own. Keep up the good work TIAT!

  • @caseyashly I just cut the extra cord and burnt the ends.... also i burnt the two inner cords together so it doesn't V out

  • 2 cobras right next to each other with only one string running down the length. cool video!

  • where do u buy the cord

  • you have no idea how much you just helped me. Thank, great video

    

  • Cool

  • WOW, a very handy stitch to know, would make a nice belt too.

  • How do I finish it off on the other ring? By the way love the art!

  • lol my lyrics to the song.

    youve got silver shine mmmm youve got a silver shine baby

    goat farm goat farm goat farm

  • That looks so cool!

  • How wide is the weave when you finish?

  • hey JD if you know the feet of chord for each inch could you post that somewhere becuase im going to make a belt and i would like to have a estimate of how much i need.

    thanks for the video and if you could post that please do

    -thesandlerb

  • How many feet of each cord (550) for each inch of length of belt? Thanks in advance. C

  • how do you finish the bar off? do you just burn the ends?

  • @Decaff2010 you can pull the remaining strings through the ring again and tie them together(c wut i did there?) if you want it to be a bracelet, else i think burning is the only option

  • i love all your videos, im new to this and you have helped alot. you go slow and take your time which i really appriciate. i now can do the zipper, river bar, cobra, and hopefully after this video the soloman bar. thanks again. im using a shackle hope it works as well as yours.

  • this would make a great guitar sling i think ^^

  • JD - you estimate 2.5 feet of cord for each inch of Bush Bar. What would you estimate as feet required (of each of three cords) for each inch for Wide Solomon Bar? I'm using 550 cord. Thanks in advance for your help!

    C

  • I'd like to know how it's finished out to another ring as well....

  • this is a GREAT VID. thanks man!!

  • have even a better idea use it as a sling for your Rifle or Shotgun

  • Thank you for yet another plu

  • Muy bonita

  • Doesn't ANYONE recognize this music as "SOUTH CITY MIDNIGHT LADY" by The Doobie Brothers!!!!

  • Love it

    

  • funny, I been watchin ur video's so much I pretty much knew what you were gonna do once I saw how you put the 3 cords on the ring. great vid

  • great clip

    

  • Can you do this with six different colors?

  • How many feet of paracord per inch of braid - for instance for a belt? Thanks!

  • i also would like to know how to attach the side release buckles.... little help please???

  • I want to make a sling for my airsoft gun with this but how do you finish it?

  • How Do You Make The End ? How Do You Finish It ?

  • So it's totally possibly to make a belt using that method? Using a ring like in the video is good for one end but what knot would you prefer to tie it off? Crown knots?

  • any way to do it without the ring? and can a triple be done?

  • I am also wondering about how to tie off. This has given me an idea for a new set of reins for my horse and possibly other tack. very nice looking piece.

  • Can you tell me how to attach a side release buckle?

  • how long does the band end up being?

  • I have a question....what about the end....how do we tie it?

  • what size welded rings did you use ?

  • Is it possible to make one of these triple wide? I know a bass guitarist who wants one but 3 solomon bars wide for his guitar strap. any ideas?

  • I really enjoy your music you play on these tutorials.

  • @delicateterrors - Thanks... *smile*

  • Comment removed

  • Thanks for this video! Going to help my girlfriend make a rifle sling using this method. I have a lot of 550 cord around and wanted to make some creative and useful things with it. Thanks for all the great videos fun to watch and if anything else the music is really interesting too.

  • if all strands are equal length when started, will strands 2 and 5 will be longer when done?

  • hoe long is the cord?

    

  • @EpicJordan100 - Each cord is 6 feet long.

  • @TyingItAllTogether

    I just made a belt that measured about 46 in" and the middle cord was around 36 feet (436 inches) the two side cord were closer to about 50" better to have to much than to little. It took about 5 hours but looks good and very light to wear

  • @TyingItAllTogether If I wanted to make one of these that was say 30 inches long, how much cord would I need?

  • @TyingItAllTogether how long, with 6 feet of cord, is the final product ?

  • @TyingItAllTogether How long did it end up being at the end? Thanks, good tutorial btw :)

  • wow great knot work but i could see where a toggle would come in very handy on this type of work it would make it tighter and most likely you would be able to tie the knots faster. a toggle would hold the strand fast and you could then have both hands free to do your knotting.

  • I've gotten serious wounds on my fingers from tying this knot! But it sure looks great!

  • hello how much rope do you use

  • hey also i am your biggest fan! you are the only guy i watch because its like you are right there teaching me step by step of what to do! so merry Christmas and thanks for everything you have done

  • How much rope do you use for these! Sorry i am a big fan of your work! you are the only person that really teaches me how to make these knots! THANKS FOR ALL YOU HARD WORK keep it up

  • JD - you are the man, this is so awesome. You're really helping me "master my craft". I happen to make parachutes for a living... but the cord IS the BEST part. I love 550 cord so much, we only use red and green though, boo. I ordered your book, can't wait for it! Many Christmases are now solved, thanks to you!

    Best Wishes Brother...

  • If I had the same color cord, this would be a cinch. Otherwise, too fast my friend! I only have mil spec red and green, can't relate(substitute) so easily at high speed. I still really appreciate your efforts though, excellent work! I have a short attention span maybe... Damn, I wish I had black and white!

  • Very nice, thanks for the video...

  • i had a friend who had one like this i think but i believe his was wider..any idea on how to make a slightly wider one

  • Can it end with another ring? How do i tie it? Would it be resistant enough to be used as a handle?

  • How much cord do you think you'd need for a 30' waist? (trying to make a belt)

  • sweet i love it

  • can this be made with three colors

  • is there a way to make this onto a bracelet?

  • i love this guy

  • The song is '16 Again' by Neon Heights.

  • can you put pic with your ideas!!!!

  • This would make an excelent belt

  • Awesome vid.....DOES ANYONE KNOW THE SONG?!?! It plays over and over in my brain

  • @TheBigsteve2010

    ...

    Neon Heights - 16 Again

  • @TheBigsteve2010 Song : Neon Heights /Ultra Chilled (disk 2) 2001

  • he bores me to death

    

  • How much paracord did you use per strand? I see most of your other bracelet videos use 5'.

  • >.< I love this.

  • ive been trying to figure out a way to make a good bracelet with the wide solomon bar but havent been able to make it work, and suggestions?

  • @tronclay

    When im done with my rifle sling i will be making my self a bracelet with that weave. I was thinking of a 2 knot system with 2 loops instead of one like on the cobra weave. I think it would fit more comfortably then a single point tie off. There is the plastic clip option if you dont mind spending the money i guess.

  • looks like shoe lace lol

  • i think im going ti try to make a belt or two thanks for posting the video

  • how long is each rope? that would be very usefull to know

  • @elwayfan101

    I found its smiler to the cobra weave. about 1 foot per inch for each piece of rope. i made a test piece before i decide to make my rifle sling. ^.^

  • @roque257 you made a rifle sling??? ive been looking all over the internet trying to find a good one and i think i like this one and i also have noticed its 1 foot of cord for just under 1 inch of braid on the cobra so it really is just about the same for this braid then? and if you dont mind me asking how did you start and stop it? im thinking a swivel sling thing for the start and end but cant think of how i would tie it off wonce i was done.

  • @snowboarddude117

    Im about 50% done with my sling now. I started the braid as shown in the video. Im not sure how im going to finish the end yet but ill let you know. I will be making a small vid when im done so every one can see how it turns out. O ya, its a foot per inch by the way. I also wanna add this will take some time I been working on it off and on for a few days now and im only half way there. 47" is a bit of work

  • @roque257 ok ill keep a look but ive been doing some thinking today and i think i may have a bomb proof way to make it it just wont be hella strong but will still have a 1100 breaking point if its a good weave

  • it looks like a belt!

  • I just daisy chain mine. Much simpler configuration that I can do even in the dark. It knots the cord up enough that its manageable and stores well in the side pocket of a pack.

  • how much wider can this be done? And if you could do a vid?

  • Ummm he or she used 550 Paracord

  • Thank You For Pausing Every Time You Tie Something, I made a cobra stitch and it turned out perfectley

  • how do u finish the thing so it looks lijke a braclet

    ha

  • made a belt out of this but and did a plain cobra stitch on top for "buckle", till i fount out there are flatter methods.

  • Who is the music you use for your video's? Awesome music and awesome braiding!

  • Years ago I seen a vehicle tow strap that was made from nylon rope or ropes woven that looked kind of similar to a solomon bar any thoughts on the type of knots or weaving process? Also, would a solomon bar made from heavier material be suitable for a tow strap?

  • do you happen to have a chart stating what lengths of paracord you'd need for different belt size ie 50' for a 34" or something like that?

  • what is this song? Sweet pattern, I'm thinking of getting into making bracelets, really just as a way to pass the time and relax.

  • if i wanna make a sling 4 feet long, how much cord do i need?

  • @trammerbammer about 2,400 feet, heheh I want to know too!

  • nice video...how would i finish the end to make a belt? could i use a belt end from a web belt?

  • I think I might try to make a rifle sling after I use this to make a watch band. The guitar strap idea is awesome too. Lots of uses for this. I think that several of my friends might get solomon bar inspired gifts this year. Great video!!!

  • whoaa... IM GONNA TRY THIS

    btw like the music
