is this emptied para cord? as in the white inner cord has been removed?

[HonestDoubter]

@PCRedman No sir. Although you can remove the inner strands - you remove much of the strength. I leave it in.

dos willow work

[HonestDoubter]

@cozz33 Yes, certain types of willow work. Pay attention to the 'finger nail test' If your finger nail makes a nice indentation (not crushes it - too soft - or no indentation - too hard) it should be good wood.

I failed a number of times until I watched this particular presentation. Little things make a big difference. Thanks for a great series of vids.
