lanyards-Show em if you got em

In Europe we use the metric system and I think I made a mistake by the conversion. 1 foot = 30,48cm, 2x 14’ (inch?) = 2x 35,56cm. You made a 30cm snake with only 70cm paracord?

He used two 14 foot lengths of cord.

To clarify it a bit further…

’ means feet, and

” means inches.

You would need about 4.3 meters of paracord in each color.

Inspired by Jack and his paracord snakes I made these baby key fobs snakes.

Thank scaru and cone - now it’s clear.

^ HAHA, you’re welcome, but you got lucky since we (scaru and I) were debating big issues elsewhere. We were happy to squeeze you in. And nice minis, Essexman.

Yep, I just posted while waiting for Cone to respond. :)

I know its not ready yet, but I don’t know which knot to use as an end knot for the wrapping.

I tend to weave it into a monkeys fist of sorts. Not exactly easy but it looks nice. Failing that just a normal knot will also work.

I think that a knot at the end of the wrap might be too bulky , have you considered whipping the junction ?

Jack, that is so cool!

Jack, you continue to amaze me! I love the person! If you don't mind me asking how did you weave together the 2 crown sinnets? I am guessing start with 2 and then interchange the middle portions?

Correct , sir .

Mrs. Foy took one look at the turk's head Jack sent me and told me to order two more. She's going to put them in grandkid's stockings I think. PM coming.

Also, metal lord and JohnnyMac, I'm digging the wrap, big time.

Resurrecting an old thread -

This is my 4th piece over the weekend, and it will probably go to my son to keep in his Jeep for his great dane: everything on this was a new knot learned today. The bead is one of the paracord ranger beads. Still tying everything freehand.

Will probably make a simple jig tomorrow for a turk’s head wrap to try that out on a light.

Other pieces: 1st was a simple, flat cobra weave keychain lanyard, 2nd were some zipper pulls to replace noisy metal tabs (my original excuse for buying some extra paracord), 3rd was a snake knot knife lanyard for my T01.
