[@orphious885]

I'm very interested in doing this myself for a friend's birthday. Great idea! Can I ask how much (dark blue) paracord you ended up using -- roughly? Edit: about 14'. Thank you.

[@rickie7589]

I am a beginner at this. I needed something to occupy my time and keep my arthritic hands moving since retiring. This is a great idea for a key chain that I will be trying out in the near future as soon as I can get the cord. I appreciate you taking the time to make these videos.

[@coyote8284]

I want to tell you that as a person that creates paracord bracelets as a stress relief, you sir are unmatched in the art of tutorials.

[@CasualInventor]

For metric users, M8 nuts work as well. I'd say allow a bit of extra distance between the buckle ends at the start (perhaps an extra 1/4 inch) because this seems to tighten up as you go along, mine ended up slightly too small. If you want to make sure that the nuts stay lined up you could thread some micro paracord through the nuts themselves as an extra "accent". That would also stop the metal from pinching your wrist. I used alternating Zinc / Nyloc nuts to add a bit of variation to the look. Pretty cool design.

[@davidritch9406]

I’d like to take time to thank you for making this video. I’ve made numerous paracord bracelet designs and this one along with the iktomi spider bracelets are favorites. The hex design I focused on to honor my step-dad who transitioned 3 yrs ago. He was hard working his entire life and I only wish I could’ve made one for him when he was alive. As a Veteran I started making simple drab Army green cords and have been addicted to making all types of now. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge!

[@antoniospanayiotou8619]

Condolences for your loss! 🙏

[@s.f.outdoorsclub7794]

Could use hex nuts for slingshot ammo, fishing weights... anything else?

[@BC-tz5oo]

To begin with I love your videos and keep them coming! In this instance however, survival is all about quick accessibility and easy deployment in all conditions. During inclement weather while fingers are cold or half frozen, you'll lose the dexterity needed to deploy/untie this quickly. When the cord is needed for lashing branches and basic emergency structures ease of deployment is vital. While I give it a 10+ on the nifty scale (as I have followed along and will tie several more) I would have to give it a zero for the survival side as it is just not feasible to deploy in cold weather, with gloves or any other circumstances where dexterity can be affected. For those of you looking for survival tips for paracord storage, quick and easy deployment in all scenarios is key. Otherwise, excellent videos and I will keep recommending your channel to friends, coworkers and the like!

[@Jackal_Blitz]

Yea no one is making this for survival purposes dude. It's clearly a cosmetic design.

[@RobinD42]

What is the name of the tool used to flatten the melty bits? I've tried to find something like that but am not sure what to search for.

[@rogerrichie7823]

Thanks for the video. I used stainless 1/4" nuts. Looks good off my wrist. Wearing it the nuts jump out of formation.

[@terryraymer3066]

Hi im trying to make a paracord bracelet for my fitbit versa can you help me out im lost on how to thanks in advance

[@uwnbaw]

These paracord bracelets with additional holed materials are always the best, I remember making that in highschool 7 years ago

[@MrStr8shooter]

wish you would talk about wrist size and length after all the work i put into this i ended up being to small for my wrist even though i added an inch larger to start with what a pain in the ,,..,

[@VincentWestberg]

+MrStr8shooter really? i used same lengths i always use worked out fine 1 inch equals 1 foot of cord are measurements i use

[@aslanierapido2915]

[@jenniferkleczka4062]

The knot you use I have always known it as the larks head knot

[@brandonhom6390]

Can you make a playlist of brackets that DON'T require buckles?

[@halfstep67]

Do you just measure your wrist and use that measurement or is there a deduction or addition to the wrist measurement?

[@nd1859]

How long the main cord

[@slymoms.3235]

how would you start this if you wanted to make an adjustable dog collar?

[@fernandoulibarri6531]

what make of paracord is the best to do this??? I noticed not all have the same quality!!!

[@jamesbutcher7153]

I just made this bracelet. Black with orange accent. The orange was a little long so I wove one strand thru the nuts to the other end. Looks great.

[@ddermont6058]

if you flip the bracelet 360° it's setting the same way it originally was. @11:45

[@MegaTapout01]

Is this easier to do freehand or could it be done on a jig?

[@wolfe1970]

Hey, love this bracelet, where can i get those nail like tools for threading the paracord ?

[@PatelKai]

Search for paracord fids on Amazon

[@suzannewright8398]

Kai Patel // intro mak

[@YBZ_GIJOE]

Hobby lobby has them.

[@Munkee214]

You can use the hex nuts for sinkers when fishing

[@glad424]

I just made this bracelet with army green and accent with florescent orange it looks fantastic I like your bracelets and I am going to make more of them.

[@Mr_Bob_Stark]

how much paracord did you use??

[@maheshpandit764]

size of parachord

[@Handmade_Kitty]

I was at the dollar store and noticed they sold a Twenty five foot bundle of paracord in different colors. I bought two bundles and looked up your video and wouldn't you know it? I made my first paracord bracelet!

[@bobdidrickson9263]

Love your videos. Keep them coming. One thing I'd like to see is for you to get consistent with giving the length of all the different cord, buckle size, complete material list at the beginning of the videos. It took you 12 mins into this one to tell us that you were using a 5/8" buckle. Thanks.

[@donebeingbullied]

Yes! Completely agree! I'm currently frustrated because I'm having to rewatch the whole video to find a specific detail I needed that should have been at the very beginning of the video. A quick "These are the materials I'm using" segment at the beginning would be very helpful!

[@gintautasradkevicius9715]

Lol

[@aleksandrruzin]

Привет Боб! В макраме, а плетение из паракорда, это макраме чистой воды, при изготовлении любого изделия берут четыре его размера.

[@jitendrachauhan1779]

which thing you used for tie bracelet on wrist

[@slipknot5400]

you sir are one bad ass bracelet maker!!!!!

[@atlanticwoodsman8347]

Very cool...Where do you get those Fids??

[@Schmadis]

You make them! Look on instructables or KZbin. You use a 2" screw post and chop off the end, hope this helps :)

[@lauralaureano4594]

I love your design! great video with clear instructions as well. I have made this bracelet many times, my son love it. now I am going to attempt to use this pattern for a belt, I am a bit intimidated by the amount of paracord I probably overestimated to use. any ideas on how to keep cords from tangling as I am using them? again thanks for the great video!

[@MrWan3x]

nice job. looks really great and the video quality is outstanding. thanks for sharing. dont take this on a wrong way pls, but one short comment on what you said at 11:47, if you turn/flip anything around 360 degree then it does look at the same direction just like before. what you have done was 180 degree.

[@AquaGotha]

This would be an awesome dog collar

[@stokerd1]

Just made two of these for friends of my son for graduation presents. Takes a little practice, but looks very cool, thanks! And you lose about 1/4" on the length of it after it's tied, just so people know.

[@startledreptile]

Great stitch, I just used it to make a 5' 1" guitar strap. (74' total cord, and 121 hex nuts).

[@mmikelegg]

Startled Reptile any pics ? I'm a guitar player and have thought about making one. Love to see how it turned out

[@dhianadhia5151]

How long you use that dark blue paracode Mr...??? I want try to make it, but in Indonesia paracode it's very cheap for 1 meters paracode.

[@КуанышАйтбеков]

[@timlenard1646]

I enjoy ur vids but i have to point out that at the 11:50 min mark u say to flip ur bracelet 360*, well that would put us right back where we started...I do believe u meant to say to flip it 180*, that would be only half way around...lol...had to point that out...keep up the good work.

[@connergilmer5343]

Do these work with a 5/8 buckle

[@BernhardHofmann]

Your left thumb freaks me out. Did you break it? It bends back so far! :o Great looking bracelet by the way, thanks for the clear instructions.

[@mikefulcher03AUG2000]

Late reply. It's a "double jointed" thing. It's also called hitch hikers thumb. Both of mine do it. They go back about 90°. Being double jointed just means the muscles are looser allowing for greater flexibility. In some cases it shows like this where joints bend in excess in the wrong direction.

[@Corpst]

mikefulcher03AUG2000 My thumbs are the same.

[@gumonthepants]

His entire hands and their movements, childlike appearance, inflammation, in stark contrast, antithetical to the tone of his adult voice and cadence. The brilliant lessons balance it all out though.

[@bloodydishtowel]

Just wondering what those hollow needle things you're using are

[@MrUltimatepie]

[@bloodydishtowel]

thanks, picked up some galvanized, some zinc coated and some stainless nuts to try this

[@MrUltimatepie]

cool msg me to tell me how it went

I call mine the para-nuts!!! Lol i made it and its sooo cooolll!!! Thank you

[@ЮлияГоршкова-ъ8с]

что это за спицы как одеть туда шнур. и где можно их купить?.очень нравятся ваши работы

[@VincentWestberg]

jut made this for my son he loves it!!!!! only thing i used my normal measurements and almost thought i made it to small this one seemded to shrink as i was making besides that i also gutted a third color and weaved it in and out of the nuts thanks for this great design

[@NikhilSharma-ey3ml]

how much time u took to complete it ????

[@anthonymorra3692]

Vincent Westberg wish i was him

[@Dash199t]

Can you Make a Video how to melt 2 paracords together?:) Im only having Problems wih that thing...

[@joejack2034]

Don't bother melting them use the Manny method or the strap knot he's rid of those ungodly globs of nylon and it less likely to burn yourself

[@joejack2034]

Joe Jack helps* stupid auto correct

[@canadianboyee]

Anyone find a way to keep the nuts nice and flush when it is bent on the wrist? They always seem to 'pop' out of place? Tried tight and a bit loose on the knots still does it

[@jpac73]

Have to tried pre-shrinking the piracies it makes it more stiff that way it won't move/bend as much

[@nabanitadas2718]

[@TrasteIAm]

I like your nuts, you can totally use them to survive. I read about someone who survived on nuts and berries, alone in the woods for a whole week! I didn't learn survival yet so I have not yet tried it but some day I will!

[@rxzip815]

mad max style plz

[@jonathancammarato687]

Very cool look but what purpose do hex nuts serve in a survival situation? If you have fishing equipment maybe a sinker?

[@samuelbaker868]

you are so good at this! of all the tutorials I've seen only this guy could show me how to make a regular paracord bracelet.

[@spencerknoles1494]

I just made one it was fun and easy. But when you put it on the hex nuts like to slide and not stay lined up it will pop out of place. The 2nd will start you slide under the hex nut. So if you make this maybe go one size down of a 5/16

[@thecreativebeast6732]

but u didnt explain how u can use it for survival

[@tylerwhitley2995]

JUST AN ART CHANNEL what if you need a nut? (No pun intended)

[@19knottyy3]

JUST AN ART CHANNEL exactly! How tf this supposed to help somebody survive? 😂🤦♂

[@sjklahn]

I'd use the nut for a fishing weight.

[@prakhargahlot9373]

You can undo the bracelet and use the paracord .

[@mrfluffels6444]

JUST AN ART CHANNEL U can throw it at an animal as weapon or something like that

[@trishmcquhae5867]

Can this be made into a dog collar? Would need to know how to attach the D Ring. Thank you :)

[@Schmadis]

Attach at the end w/ a Solomon bar knot, very easy

[@Grizznitch]

omg thanks now if only i could get my sizing right lol i either make my bracelets too small or run out of cord but im new and refuse to give up

[@gabrieltorralba8801]

what's the size of the buckle that he uses?

[@alan30189]

Nice! Spend the extra buck or two and use stainless hex nuts. Zinc will eventually rust. That's another way to play with your nuts. :-O Just kidding. Couldn't help myself. LOL

[@kimbapal2]

You should put the braclets on after you finish to show us how it looks on a wrist

What kind of ropes do you use

[@lucaspolato5882]

cara vc é muito bom

[@MrShockleader]

Hi, just a quick heads-up, I tried it with a slightly smaller nut and it's nearly impossible (I gave up after two threadings) as the cord starts to bunch up when you thread it. back to the hardware shop manana!

[@FaizanKhan-et4nh]

nice make new paracord brackets and thank you

[@peter-radiantpipes2800]

What size buckles are those? I have smaller ones but not large enough for this or a king cobra braid. I have large wrists too (9.5” for last reg cobra one) so reg Solomon looks tiny on me.

[@rolandopaolosanantonio9131]

What's the use of this??

[@wtfiswiththosehandles]

Well OBVIOUSLY it's a hex nut survival bracelet. You never know when your very LIFE might depend on having some sturdy hex nuts available on hand. And BAM! They actually ARE on your hand. This is SO awesome.

[@vebaeb]

All of your videos are very good. I made this bracelet but had to redo it and make the hex nuts loose against each other. If they are tight against each other they will pop up at different place because it is too stiff to bend.

[@1983Magichan]

Yeah flip the bracelet 360 wouldn't that makes no changes I think you mean 180.

Have you done one of these hex nut bracelets with the nuts turned on the side so the flat part is on the outside? I would love to see how that one is done too.. ;)

Disculpa me puedes escribir cuanto centímetros es para hacer la pulsera.

[@Menace-et3jk]

i used aluminum hex nuts and it came out much more lightweight also thinking about stepping them down a size to fit on a 5/8in buckle also someone asked if this can be made into a dog collar and yes I did it using a 1in buckle and I find the best way to attach the dring is at the beginning in the cows hitch then doubling back through on it twice also stepped my nut size up for the collar forget the exact size but I think its two up from 5/16

[@natec6855]

Try with washers for a different effect

[@angiedj62]

Just completed this. Used 10 feet with about 18 inches left over. The 550 cord was too wide for me so I used 325 cord. This was much easier than it looks. Thanks for the video. Couldn't find stainless steel hex nuts. A box of 100 was $5.98 for the 1/4 and another dollar for the 5/16. I used the 1/4 for the 325 cord.. Will use 5/16 for the 550 if I get customers requesting it.

[@jamesevans7812]

Do you sell these Hex-Nut para bracelets in size 10-10.5" in custom colors?
