How could you knot?
The "frayed" part didn't go unnoticed either. Bravo!
@ T2 - Just give it up. Think of all the fun the grandchildren can have with it. You know you could just start them off with boondoggle first, then let them graduate into paracord.
I got the paracord from Supply Captain
I also got some great accessories from USA Knifemaker Supply
And also from Lighthound
If that helps you any........
That lingo is funny stuff.
What is knot is that I blew snot out my nose from laughing at it and the boss came over to take a look at what was so funny (Damn shared offices) and I showed him but he just made a stone face. So I asked him if he did knot find that funny? He looked at me with a humorous gleam in his eyes and said "I'm a frayed knot! "
THEN he laughed at it :-)
All good and looking forward to seing O-L's knots. LOL!
Ya, that Telman guy totally derailed this thread for no other reason than just to be funny. That's not right! 8)
The moment you read this thread it was already too late. Soon you will have ordered a few hundred feet of paracord. :p
Just take a look in this thread and then try to resist ordering some paracord.
And I am afraid I assisted. But I couldnt help but share that little intermezzo w. the boss.
Now I am chuckling again. Soorryyy O.L. (Grovels in the dirt and moves off to my corner. Chuckling)
Don't have to explain it to me, Ledsmoke, I was just trying to defect my own culpability. :glasses:
If that isn't enough inspiration for you, peruse the pictures here and here. That should kill a couple hundred hours and give you an idea or two.
Now I understand. Things I might make to modify the lanyards, like these Copper rings, cut from soft tubing and polished (a little), on a nail set punch.
Except the tubing cutter leaves lines, Oh well it will still work.
Actually I thought you did the best job trashing the thread, by your incessant replies, but maybe it's just me.
It really does not bother me that much, so dont' worry about your total lack of forum etiquette. We've grown accustomed to it. Kind of like a rash...
Cone - I'm as bad as you are..... So don't mind me.
I did have the link at BLF, but after seeing those links to EDC forum, I definitely need to stay away from that place!
Thanks for the links.
The lines give it character.
I'm sure there are many threads where there can be legitimate and valid complaints about my behavior, but it is no small irony that you call me out about it in a thread where I was actually trying to be helpful and not merely entertaining. I'm going back to CPF where they aren't so mean and rude. :(
JK!
As for my "incessant replies", well that is ChicagoX's fault because he bet me a new Solarforce that I couldn't get to 6000 post before Don.
Actually, I just made that last bit up. :glasses:
I heard it was for everyone who gets to 6,000 posts!
Made that up, too!
Interesting, I wonder who else he made that bet with?
HAHAHAHA! Nothing like starting a rumor and watching it spread.
Come on cone, if I wasn’t mean and rude, you would think I didn’t like you.
Like my sainted grandmother Always said: "wait till I die, then you will be sorry!"
