When lacing the shoes, for that last hole instead of going across to the other side go down through the last hole with the laces on each side, then across and under that last loop that was created on each side. From there you can tie the shoes as shown in the demonstration.
Recently replaced my shoelaces with paracord just because it was easy to get in bulk. Found your video after Googling because mine kept coming loose. This works perfectly and easy to remember and implement. Thanks!
I sometimes have trouble getting the first two bights of a long Turks head knot started, and this is the video I always come back to. Perfect demonstration, no unnecessary chattering... Thank you!
Try using a screw clamp for the one end rather than a rubber band I myself am still learning and need to make a longer one in order to do what I want but using the screw clamp helped me drastically in the learning process and I've only been at it for about 3 days when it comes to globe knots or turkshead knot also what's the difference between the two I can't tell
@@kennethpaschall6811 globe knots can be formed into a sphere whereas Turks head knots typically cover something cylindrical (or mostly cylindrical like a handle). Globe knots are really good to tie around steel ball bearings or wooden beads to make a great end of a key fob. Tying them is really similar though. Many of the differences come in the tightening & finishing steps.
Wow thirteen minutes of either silence or the majestic sound of wind blowing on a microphone... obviously knows his knots but for the purpose of explaining what your doing so others can easily follow along this video get a 1 out of 10
When I did this the lanyard wasn't tight like yours out of the bottom. I had hoped I could tighten it after the fact but I think I need to remake it ;)
After looping over two or three pegs give a pull downward on the knitted section to tighten it up as you work. If it's still loose, it could be that the pegs on your spool are spaced too far apart for the cord you're using.
The wall knot and snake knot are the same knot. The more you learn about knots, you'll find that many can go by different names. The wall knot can be found in the Ashley Book of Knots, as knot #775.
intreasting.didnt really pay attention to paracord bands and any inconsistencies.im hopeing their weight limits are all the same as rated though lol.i plan to make my own.im a diy guy.
In the video example, I set the two pins at 1 3/4" apart, but you can set them closer on a smaller spool for a tighter pattern, you really have to experiment with different spools and numbers of pegs and spacing to find how tight or loose your personal preference is. Paracord from different vendors can vary in size somewhat, so one brand may end up working out tighter/looser than another on the same spool. There are some vendors that sell paracord spools, like Jig Pro Shop and ExtremePara, for those that don't want to make their own. ;)
This was nice, I have been searching for a design using three colors to go around the top of a walking stick (cane). Any deals of where to search. Thank you. I am new at this
You can tie this knot with three colors, just make the knot with one color first, then follow the pattern from start to finish with the second color, and again with the third color. The excess cord at start and end can be trimmed and tucked after you tighten up the knot. To tighten, you gradually work the slack out, from start to finish with each color. Don't try to do it all in one pass, just work some slack out of each color in order, and go back and do that again, from start to finish. It may take two or more times to get the knot tight, keeping it straight and lined up as you work, very time consuming, but worth it in the end. ;)
Great demo thanks! But I also want to learn how to do the interweave, as in the pineapple knot on this long knot. I'm not keen on doubling and tripling.
In 'The Ashley Book of Knots', it is referred to as knot #778, a two-strand stopper knot. Many knots in the book are simply given a number, and there are many different two-strand stopper knots, and some knots go by several different names depending on the source, so in this instance, it's just #778. ;)
Las hago simplemente con un pedazo de tubo de cobre de 1/4 de pulgada para gas LPG. Más sencillo; Las agujas de tejer recortadas funcionan muy bien, y se usa un poco de cinta eléctrica par fijar la cuerdita a la aguja.
Is it just me, or is this the same knot as the two strand Lanyard Knot, ( from another one of your videos) just tied from the opposite end? They look so much alike.
What knife is that? Great job as always stormdrane!I learned this knot as the "electricians knot", tied before a 2 strand power cord exits an enclosure, as a strain relief. Always thought it worked great as decorative as well.
Stormdrane (David Hopper) Thank you sir for the reply. A little more trial and error and it seems to be working for me now. Trying to put a second strand in the middle for easier attachment next.
Hi David, nice Jobs! About the first knot, I don't remember how to finish the knot at the top (to place on a metalic fid using in very cold weather ) how to finish this roundish part. thanks by advance for a new tuto on this chanel. Capt Patrick.
Question. Could this knit go around a core such as a steering wheel? I wrapped my steering wheel in a simple loop through loop style, but I want to try something a bit smoother.
+HAVOK RP Group You can knit cord around a steering wheel, but you wouldn't be able to do it with a knitting spool. Search for some examples of knitting and crochet for those techniques. ;)
hey storm i enjoy your videos... i been searching for mored videos on braids. are there any website i can look for? how long is needed to make a bracelet or a lanyard?
+khairoen The amount needed can change for each pattern/design that is done including such variables as diameter of particular cord you're using, different types of buckles/clasps/closures, and how tight or loose you tie a particular knot, as well as if you trim and melt/sew/glue or tuck the end strands too. There are folks that share specifics for patterns they tie, like in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OhLsR4a9dEs.html But, to narrow it down, I've found it best to just tie a short sample of a pattern with a known length of cord, see how much you used to make an inch or two of that pattern out of the length you tied it with, then multiply that by what you need a finished length to be, and add in extra to account for buckles, loops, core strands and whatnot so you don't come up short in the end. It's a very mathematical situation if you break it down, and I'm no mathematician, lol. There are turk's head calculators online too, that can figure out lengths based on leads, bights, core diameter you're tying around and cord size too: upstream.50webs.org/turkshead/turks.html
+Taji Hall I can talk, but I have some hearing loss and tinnitus as well as a speech impediment, so I prefer to just demonstrate visually for the videos with some annotations. :)
