@Kassi4691 I made mine 36" long. It took two pieces 36 feet long. So if you need a 38" strap, you will need two pieces 38 feet long. Be prepared to spend several hours making these slings. Follow the link in my description of the video to find out how to make them step by step. Tiat was making a bracelet, it is basically the same thing.
You said you used 2 strands but I thought three was needed for this weave. I'm gonna make a few myself but let me know 2 or 3. from what I watched from TIAT it looks like three.
@imbadwrench Not sure about how strong leather would be. I am sure it will be fine as long as the leather cord is round, otherwise it will have a bunch of twists in it. Never worked with leather before. I am planning on making a full instructional video on making a sling in the future when I have time.
Super cool! I've been practicing stuff from the TyingItAllTogether channel and my next project is a shotgun sling. I was going to use the Wide Solomon and now I'm sure of it. Great work, thanks for the video,
@Kaqmijn The ends are tucked under and fused there is no way they are comong loose. Thanks for watching. I will be making a new sling for my 35 Whelen I bought yesterday. I will post a video later this week.
@DannyIIIvb I basically just thread the ends into the backside of the strap then fuse them with a lighter. I make sure I have a butter knife handy to mash all that melted rope into the sling so it looks nice and holds better. I may post a how to video soon.
@nedyahr Sam made me a strap for my bugout bag... thing is way more comfortable than the old strap and it has over 140feet of cord! Paracord is amazing. Belt is a cool idea.
@lakerfaninutah1 Go to the link in my description and it will take you to JD's video of him making a bracelet. I pretty much did the same thing he did at the end. Thanks for watching. Please Subscribe. I will be posting a video pretty soon of a belt I am working on.
Want to buy one made.

That's awesome! That's almost exactly what I wanted to do for my AR. Any idea how much paracord you used?

@441MPYSstihl I do use two strands. Find Tiats video where he makes a bracelet using a double solomon. Its newer than the one you are watching.

been considering making one from leather cord, think it would be strong enough?

Bad ass. Nuff said. I'm a little worried about the ends simply being heat fused. I'm going to find a way to tuck and hide them and post the results.
