Paracordist's How To - the paracord Nantucket Bracelet, sailor knot bracelet (Turks Head)

[Marciamazing123]

Is there any form that I could do it with 3 colors and 2

[billwhit1357]

Love the kids! You need to show them sometime. I have four daughters myself, and nine grankids, seven boys and two little girls. The boys and I are learning this together. I used to macreme, but if I say, "boys, lets macreme!", they wouldn't be interested, but I tell them it is for survival, they bite at the bit, wanting to learn, lol!

[BarneySaysHi]

Nice craftmanship!

[EvilYevin]

I have been looking for it and how much will it be with 12' cord?

[kevingg2000]

@EvilYevin thanks for asking, but I've got no time to do right now. I'll add to the site in the future though!

[newtubetubetube]

[henanimejade]

[mayvisss]

[kevingg2000]

[MsAmberalive]

What do you use for the needle at the end of your paracord?

[kevingg2000]

@MsAmberalive its a paracord fid/lacing needle. i sell them on my website; link is in the video description

[sdfhsdher]

how many feet should I need?

[kevingg2000]

@sdfhsdher requires around 12' at the most typically

[megadewlover]

this helped me alot, i thought it would take a long time but it didn't. now i can show it off! thnx:)

[Mandamaker]

Also where do you get the cord from??? Mine is shoelaces :)

[Mandamaker]

I think tht was over the epic moon. All my mates are asking me how to make one and so i said,''Youtube, kevingg2000 showed me'' :)

[artisticgeniusdude]

awesomesauce

[kevingg2000]

@artisticgeniusdude thanks for watching!

[thelister4910]

What a trainwreck of a filming environment lol. Kids crying and getting hit in the nose, dogs sprinting on hard tiles... Great job staying calm.

[kevingg2000]

@thelister4910 you'll find it a recurring theme in almost all my videos!

[iCailyn3]

You kinda sound like Adam Sandler!

[Pariah235mw]

Couldn't stop laughing after 2:30 lol. Gotta love kids.

[my1956effie]

Excelent how to vid, easy to follow. Watched it twice then had a go, only needed to backtrack once. Thanks.

[Petersonm83]

Thank you, it's been ages since I've had one of these (Made one while aboard the SS Westward out of Woods Hole!) Almost 10 years ago, was great to find a tutorial that was easy to follow. Only took 2 tries to get the size right, thank you!

[kevingg2000]

@Petersonm83 awesome, thanks for feedback

[jaky1939]

What length do you use ??

[peacelovegolf0172]

I always come back to this video when i need to make a new bracelet! well done!

[nereeng]

can u make a tutorial like this but 2 different colors?

[kevingg2000]

@nereeng its the same thing; just after you do the first pass (like my video), follow the cord round again with the next color paralell to the first.

[dorslv]

Love the background music ;-)

[futbolspaz]

Thanks so much! I made a perfect one! Your kids are funny!

[kevingg2000]

@futbolspaz thanks; good job! subscribe to my channel and be notified when I put up new vids!

[Picasanta]

you could have chosen another collers pall!

[kevingg2000]

@Picasanta ???????

[Kimberleesf]

Thanks for the video!! It was soo much easier to understand than most! I was wondering if you kno how to do them with 2 colors? i have seen some that have a 2 color combo......Thanks so much!!

[kevingg2000]

@Kimberleesf yes, to add a middle color that differs, just a couple passes with one color, then run the second color in between them and hide all ends underneath.

[paintballhead03]

thanks for this...i did this going around 2 times on the grip on my rifle.

[kevingg2000]

@paintballhead03 cool

[dforcucci]

This got me going, Thanks Kevin! I grew up in MA too and remember how stinky my bracelet would get. I made one last night for my daughter to wear in her Kayak class here in Seattle.

PS. I really enjoyed the background entertainment. You handled it great, but I just hope your wife hasn't seen your video....

[liveyourlyfe77]

Thank you Kevin! You should really make sure your kids don't kill eachother though... Lol

[AryaStark567]

Hi! So I was wondering, what type of needle are you using on the end of that cord? Where might I get one? Cool vid! Thanks for posting :)

[kevingg2000]

@AryaStark567 needle was made special, its not available unfortunately. google "angelfire skateworld", the site has some paracord sized fids.

[Madwand1]

I can understand why some people murder their children...

[jagiya4561]

your kid sounds so cuuute! ^^ thanks for the tutorial! =)

[demastaJr]

where do you buy paracord (like in a store not online)???

[souske69]

I'm having a problem figuring out how to go from the first main chord, to the second (of 3). just wondering if you could possibly do an add on video of actually making it all the way. You've got 3 subs coming form me =P

[kevingg2000]

@souske69 thanks for sub! I'll do that vid when things slow done for me; crazy making Christmas orders for people!

[souske69]

@kevingg2000 That video would be REALLY nice

[kevingg2000]

@souske69 what video would be really nice???

[peacelovegolf0172]

just watched this yesterday--- by far the best video for making this bracelet... i tried a bunch of tutorials and was not able to complete the bracelet... then i watched this video and now i have an amazing turks knot bracelet! Thanks kevingg2000!

[kevingg2000]

@peacelovegolf0172 that is so cool; thanks for sharing your experience! how about a picture of it? I'd love to put your comment and pic on my website!

[peacelovegolf0172]

@kevingg2000 sure, where do i send the photo?

[kevingg2000]

@peacelovegolf0172 theparacordist@gmail.com

thanks!

[Dusty18886]

i love this just what the name of this string and im sure going to try to make it i hope i can :P

[kevingg2000]

@Dusty18886 It is paracord, also known as 550 Cord (for its tensile strength)

[Boghog1]

What is that tool you were using that held the end of the paracord?

[kevingg2000]

@Boghog1 its a brass rod threaded in one end and sharp on the other; its one of a kind a friend made for me for paracord

[Boghog1]

@kevingg2000

You need to post a video with a close up it sounds perfect

[simezra]

awesome man thank you very much
