Check out my paracord fun

hahaha I bet he has some golf ball sized bruises. I'm gonna make up some before the Feb 5th match. I'll message you when I get them done hollis. I'll be sure yours is long enough to wrap around and get you in the clackers.

Do you make them like the one in this video?

Or should I ask how much $$

I found some 70 caliber lead balls at Cabela's and made a bunch of Monkey Fist key rings out of them one Christmas.

I mostly crown knot like your first pic, but the fun is in the variations and putting different things together.

$20 for this one. Also have a few made up in the green color. Yes I tied it like the guy in that video. I also have tied some up with a box knot several layers long.

That is swift. When I can figure out a use for it, I think I am going to get with you on a couple things.

No problem. Will post up pics of others. I made one at work and everybody wanted one instantly. I only ordered 10 of the steel balls so I only have 2 left. I am going to order more soon.

Here is my latest creation. Gonna order 10 more balls on Monday. I've been tying these up for a few days now. gotta make a maroon and gold FSU one and a USM one. So gonna have to make a cord run and get some different colors. I got a bunch of left over short pieces I'll make zipper pulls and knife holder thingys.

Get some black for sure, I would go for a knife lanyard for me Gerber LMF II and a monkey's fist.

no problem. getting black, gold, and maroon monday. Gotta tie up a USM fan monkey fist, and a FSU fan monkey fist so I'll have some extra black laying around.

How long are they? Ill take a black/flo orange one when you get more balls in and if you have the orange. Also need to get my bow sling made, same colors and can drop my sling off to ya for comparison.

surprised another Nole exists on this forum. Makes me want a garnet and gold one too!

Yeah, paracord slings would be a hot item.

I'll give it a go. Tell me how long the sling needs to be. I don't have orange yet or the swivels so you'll have to tell me what kind of swivels to use.

Check this out:

The length is adjustable.

Ill check a place on the coast this week for some orange, if the have some Ill grab it for ya.

That sling looks pretty basic. I think I could pull that off. Hollis I'll look for orange monday. I'll let you know if I need it.

So as far as orders goes
hollis 1 black and orange fist possibly a sling
newto228 you want anything?

Post a picture of the USM one

Um damn. Since you are twisting my arm, I have a Gerber LMF II knife that could use a lanyard in black and let's do a black monkey's fist like you had up there also in black. If you can make a sling like what's pictured with adjustability, I will be in for at least one.

Ill just take the monkey fist for now. what is a good price for the colored paracord? think they sell it either 50' or 100' packs down south at a Army/Navy store in Goula.

I was buying my paracord from that Army/Navy store in Goula. I want to say it was $3.99 for 50' and $7.99 for 100'. I may be a $1 short on that, and they only had black and white in the 100' last time. When I get home I'll dig up my receipts to find out for sure.
