I MADE THIS DIY Fire fighter Paracord Key Chain

Made a firefighter keychain out of paracord. Cobra weave, coyote brown + hi-vis yellow, bronze snap hook, firefighter SCBA bead, red wrap at the tail.

Nothing fancy. Just something that survives the pocket and still looks like the job.

If anyone wants the knot: cobra over a core, bead at the end with a diamond knot, heat-sealed, then the red whipping.

Just picked up paracord the other day for the first time. Im a plumber so using layout string for new houses to set up my walls reminded me about all the knots I had learned when I took my rigging class EX. Bowline, taughtline, pipe hitch And so on. . Im still trying to figure out my finishes but here are a couple projects I did over the past couple of days. I also made a cobra knot bracelet but I gave it away and didnt get any pics of that one.

I can't attach all of them, but here's some bracelets I've made since starting a few weeks ago (photos are from most recent to less recent)! Sorry if they look messy, these are pictures taken before burning the ends, as I make them at like 3am😅 Hoping to try more patterns and get better at the hobby, It's been very enjoyable so far! :D

Solved, thank you everyone for your help!!

I keep seeing amazing paracord videos on pintrest but they never have a tutorial linked, so I rarely see that knot again, hoping someone may be able to advise, as I really like this one and would be sad to not be able to make it! Tia!

QUESTION Need help finding the right knot

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Hi all. I've recently started making beaded paracord accessory collars for dogs. The core is just a single strand with an o-ring on one end and snaphook on the other. I did this snaphook knot (if that is what it's called) but I don't know how I feel about the strength, especially the melted end. The collar is by now means meant to be used for weight bearing, but still would need to withstand friction and regular wear and tear

I'm finding it hard to find the appropriate knot, all tutorials I find seem to have a double stranded core or needs at least both strands to be "manipulated" to get the knot

Beware the new colors- bad experience with Paracord Planet

Post image
71 Upvotes

I was making a project out of the pink lemonade color from Paracord Planet, as well as neon pink and neon yellow, which is what that is made of. I ran out of it in big enough stands to continue the project so I ordered more. As you can see in the picture, what arrived is not the same color at all. The smaller bag was the original, neon pink and neon yellow colorway. It's more of a regular yellow and burgundy in the new color. I let them know they accidentally sent USMC instead of pink lemonade, since that's what has those colors. They sent more, and I thought they would send the right color. But when it arrived it was the same wrong color. I made stuff out of it but I'm not a huge fan of it. When I told them about it being wrong again they basically said screw you and that the color they sent is what the pink lemonade would be from now on. On the site the pictures remain the colors it used to be. I don't know if they're doing this with anything else, but I wouldn't be surprised.

QUESTION How to give some paracord pracelets some extra cushioning?

2 Upvotes

Let's say hypothetically I wanted to make some paracord restraints for a partner, but we wanted them to be a bit softer and more cushioned. How might I do that? The only thing coming to mind is gluing some felt to the inside of the bracelets but I don't really like that idea. Or maybe there's a different kind of cord that would be better suited for something like this?

ETA: I'm not planning on using the cord directly, I would be making cuffs out of them (much like any other paracord bracelet).

ETA2: This is not for shibari, I understand that shibari using paracord is not safe. If you have safety concerns with CUFFS made from paracord, please let me know.

Very simple knot, but I'm just getting back into paracording after being away for a while. I made this one to match as closely as possible to the safety stripes on my work uniform (I just wish they made reflective paracord similar to the reflective stripes on a safety vest)

I'm going to make some reins for my horse and I can't figure out what this braid is called/ how to do it. I'm sure it's pretty obvious but I've only ever done basic braids all one color 😅
