Suggestion for when you are fusing the cord: lick your finger before you touch the molten cord. It makes it so you dont get burned, so you can create a better seal on it
thanks for the video. It will give me something to mess around with over the winter now. I do have a question. In the end of the video, you go up and cut the end of the cobra weave at the beginning of the spine,but don't show it. Why? Thats the only part i don't understand.
I just want to start out by saying i find all your DIY video's highly useful . but in this video you said to cut the cord that overlaps the spine first on the top and bottom .but i never heard you explain the reason for that is.
@bowhunter4e great tutorial dude, the only thing i was'nt sure on is at 6.40 where you cut the top strand and also the one underneath..where is the cut made, in the middle ?. what happens after that ? does the rest just come away and i have to burn the ends of what ive cut ? im going to make one this week sometime, thinking of trying a double spine with 2 thinner strands and colours...thanks again dude keep a BLING'IN
awesome vid. but I have 2 questions...1) what size cord works best for this? how big/small around?..also 2) you lost me at 6:17 -6:45 what am I cutting?where? and do I burn the cord after cutting it?
@irisharmed paracord works best, it's also called 550 cord, it's about 1/8" in diameter...at that point in the video i cut the section of paracord that bunches up in the back, you don't have to do that, i just think that it looks cleaner, and yes, burn the cord so that it melts, this will keep it from fraying and coming undone.
Your a good man. I appreciate you doing this. It's a free country. If you want to show someone how to braid then go ahead. I was thinking about all the guys on AT that sell them when I saw this video to. Lol. Good video bud. =)
Hey thanks man, if i can save people some money by showing them how to do something...ill take a few nasty emails lol...I'm glad you liked the vid...I'm not on AT, but i think i would be banned if i was lmao...AT is all about archers hating archers and punks who can talk crap from a computer screen lol...Thanks again man.

about how much paracord did you use to make the sling?
warlockfreak89 10 months ago
@warlockfreak89 probably around 20' give or take to be on the safe side...about 10-12' for the diamond braid and another 8-ish feet for the cobra

can u use 1 strand
bowhunter9a 1 year ago
@bowhunter9a yes, you can use one strand instead of 2...but i think 2 looks cooler. It's all about your preference.
