JD, thank you. I was just asking about this a few days ago! One more question: What hardware do you use to shoot video, and what to edit/insert titles/etc.? Keep on tying!

Very nice and interesting look into how you make your videos. One suggestion. Get some cord keepers, or use some spare bits of paracord to tie up your cords instead of winding around the base of the lamps. Winding the cord around a small diameter object can fracture the internal wiring leading to shorts, and I'm sure those lamps aren't cheap. Also, it'll save you some time on setup and you'd be less likely to drop the lamp while unwinding the cord.

first of all THANKS a LOT for all your awesome videos

i am amazed that you can remember to make all those different knots, how do you do it??

you must have"glue brain" :-D lucky you

and where do you get the best/cheapest paracord 550 ??

take care :-)

JD, when you present the rope, try one thumb up and one thumb down to mix it up. Love the videos, a great inspiration. Thanks!!

Very wise! Im an amateur filmmaker. Never occured me use lights such a way. You not only teaching us knotting but making film as well!

What I couldn't figure out, is where was the camera that took the actual knot making video? When you ended this video by turning around and leaving the room, I didn't see anything attached to your body that looked like a camera lens type thing. Is it something like a very small lens like seen in spy movies or something?

Thanks for taking the time to make your videos, they've been really helpful to me in learning new knots. I searched Utube for bondage ties, and discovered so much more!

Starting each tye when you flip your thumbs up to reveal the paracord, I always say in my head "tah-dah, here's the cord" lol. It makes me smile! thanks for the "behind the scenes". And thanks for all the cording videos. gregg

Now, to complete this, make a video showing how you made a video of this.

I was wondering how you got such clear/clean shots and now I know! Thanks...great job and awesome job on all your videos. And I so agree with steelhiker, about the house and hands thing, yup yup, but mostly on your stop and show technique. It gives me time to stop the vid and do that part of the knot. :) I"ll add that I love your beginnings where you put your thumbs together over the cord. Really focuses my mind. Thanks! Super job!

@TheAngryvikingman I'd second that, though if the cords get broken it's hardly the end of the lamp, putting new cords on something is cake.
