I find that when I get down to the end of a fishtail, instead of that over hand knot, I do a half-hitch on each side, Pull it tight and then Snip and singe. It's a much more secure ending. :)
What is a half-hitch? I’m teaching my students how to do this, but I didn’t like the other video for the ending. It was sticking out. Thank you! (This video is great). 👍🏾
this was easy, did not expects that, made mine just now, its now finished and looks good, im happy with it, though i used good quality lace from tracky bottoms, did the same job and melts ok, i avoided using the flat lace, a nice round lace does the trick, it doesnt twist as much, i used same coulor lace, i like that look thanks bro, great videos
I recently made a two color bracelet as per these instructions. Very easy to follow. The only difference that I did was after I got my measurement for the proper size I used a piece of wire tie to hold the paracord in place at on end. Made this assembly so much easier. Thank you for the video. I will be making many more!
I made this as i watched the video. I used a blue w/a black buckle. Next up is a two color bracelet with a knot and loop closure. Thank you for the easy to follow videos.
Awesome tutorial!! Excellent, and detailed instructions. I have always wanted a little more information regarding the clasp. While I have already completed several, fairly complicated braclets, the initial tying to the clasp, was a little confusing. You totally cleared up all my questions. I will be looking forward to more of your videos. Thanks.
man this is one of the best paracord videos in terms of easy instructions and the fact you was very thorough with everything thanks for the video and it look forward to seeing more
Nice video. Just finished my first ever attempt. Overall I'm pleased with it. Could have been a bit tighter but I'm sure I'll get better with each one I make. Thanks for the good instructions.
Great instructions with great details! Thanks for keeping your thumb out of the way too. I have made these before but it has been a long time so I forgot the beginning and needed a refresher. I usually watch another "guy" but his thumb gets in the way. I looked up another source and your video appeared. Yours was very helpful. Good job!
Regina Villalobos Thanks for the kind words Regina! I try my best to make these tutorials easy to understand and follow. It's actually quite tough making the bracelet behind the camera and trying to keep my fingers out of the way. Thanks for watching and commenting! :)
For Reference: Measurements 0:57 Attaching to buckles 1:57 Weaving starts 6:55 Finishing 12:18 P.S. I understand that some of these are up there, I just wanted them all in one place
Awesome video. Love the way you explain things. I'm new to Paracord crafts. So far I made couple Solomon knot bracelets and couple chain link bracelets. Still needs more work lol. A question I have is if you have a 6 inch wrist, how do you calculate how much paracord you need? That's one of the issues I have. Thanks again for a great tutorial!
I seriously love you man ive tried many different bracelets and ended up tangled in the cord (im a fail) but i found yours and now i can make bracelets also your vids aren't confusing
I've wondered the same thing. Seems like it would do the trick. Going to give it a try. My jig helps a bit, but not for some knots. Maybe I need more experience with the darn thing
took me several starts but i got it done n it doesnt look bad. very understandable tutorial.. ill make a few more like this than i have another project that calls for a turks head... thanks for a great vid...
Excellent instructions my friend!!! I tried this weave once before watching another video and just couldn't get it. Now I'm wearing a very sharp looking fishtail bracelet after following along with your tutorial. Thanks for taking the time to help us newbies in the paracord world. Keep up the good work bro!!!
Really good tutorial. All of your tutorials are good but just something to think about if you bring that fused section down alittle from the buckle you can hide it with the weave. Just a thought?
Thank you for your clear and patient video. Question - what kind of lighter are you using? I can’t find any small torch lighters that would be safe and appropriate for use on paracord.
You should consider changing the name of this weave to "infinity" as it forms an infinity sign as you weave. Over-Under-Over-Under. Great video, and very clearly taught.
+bashfulbrother Interesting idea. This one is widely known as the fishtail though and I'm not sure who created it. I find it best to keep the original name as to give credit to the creator.
I think you could use a large enough metal butterfly clip to hold the cord tight as you start your weaving, don't you think? Then less worrying about it moving or changing length as you get started.
Wow! that was an extremely well done tutorial! I had trouble my first time around with the first knot, but I undid it and tried again, and it worked out perfectly. Thanks!
Hey, great easy to follow tutorial! I was just wondering about how much paracord was used for the bracelet? I was thinking maybe 6 feet but I'm not sure...Thanks 👍
Thank you for the instruction. Works like a breeze. Good workout for my hands, they get so stiff an arthritic. Can't wait to try different colors. Inquiry; how do I determine my length in terms of overall length. Length of bracelet + total paracord? Thanks again, your the Bob Ross of paracord!
Have you ever thought of using a binder clip at the top to hold your starting length so nothing slips then weave? You could hang it from a hook and it would be less cumbersome to weave then and maintain tension. Cool look to the fishtail.
Hey weaver,sorry idk ur name, but i found a nice way of making these. I used your double cows hitch method and layer it above the core and pulled cords around and through the middle and it came out great.it works perfectly for soid colors i haven't tried multicolor but boredparacords color variation method also works very well
I really want to do the rastaclat with a buckle but i can't figure it out, trying to use this tutorial as reference, can you give me any advice on doing rastaclat with buckle? Thanks
Realy enjoy your channel. Thanks for the hard work! One question. Could this be done as a backpack handle wrap? If so... Do you have a tutorial for it? Thanks again.
Great video :D I love how a lot of bracelets might turn out too "girly" and stuff , but with these you just have to chose the right colours then it looks cool on both boys and girls ^^
Thanks Emilie! And yes absolutely, color choice is key. Also I've found that you can use thinner paracord like 275 or 95 paracord to make thinner bracelets of you're looking for something more feminine.
+The Weavers of Eternity Paracord Tutorials One of my friends try to look really tough and cool all the time , so i made him an army coloured one and a black and dark blue one , it is really fun to do :D At the moment i am almost out of paracord and there is nowhere where i live that sells more without the price being insane XD Thanks for replying by the way ! ^^
Nice tutorial! I really appreciate it. I wonder if I can make more bracelets like this and sell them online? is there any patents or copyrights on the weaving technique that I should know?
Hello, nice video! thanks for sharing. I do not speak English, to write using google translated. it is possible to know the length of paracord needed for a 8 inch wrist? (finished with buckles) I'm trying to make a table with various types of bracelets with proportions and lengths considering the size of the wrist ..
Great video videos. I am trying to make a bracelet and i have a quick question,if i use just one color do i still have to cut two pieces and join them, And what size of buckle did you use.
Dude, your vids are like the apex of Paracording videos, amazing job! Made on of these for the girl (purple/white) and she loves it! +1 Sub and keep it up!!
The Weavers of Eternity Renaissance The problem is that i can pick up paracord at a local hardware store but i have no idea where id get buckles and stuff, and i dont even really like the buckles anyway. But i prefer these more slim designs so its unfortunate that it needs a buckle. Any more thin designs that dont need buckles? is there a way to do this one without a buckle? it would be cool if it could be made as one continuous loop. is that possible?
highspeedchase13 There's a way to do this one without buckles. I'll be doing a tutorial on how to do that soon, so just sit tight for now! Thanks for watching and commenting!
