Definitely going to give this one a go, I like that style. One thing I have started doing is instead of preshrinking my cord before doing everything, I now shrink after creating whatever it is I am creating. In this case, I would make the bracelet a little large, usually about a 1/2 inch larger than what I would wear, and then when complete, soak it in super hot water, not so much boiling, and then let it air dry over night. It tightens everything up, and in the case where the slack was a little loose, it would be nice and tight in the morning. Thanks for this tutorial, great job!

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+Rich Johnson Great tip!

[@ms23419]

sounds like a good idea

[@pinkannasofoxy9588]

I can't under over why

[@GATORSK8TER]

Does this method work with women? Lol

[@Hellwolf501]

this is my first paracord bracelet, and I gotta say you have the best tutorials easy to follow, clear and concise, 8/10 would watch again

[@odonecoyote8200]

much better video then the other "mad max" style one i watched and made,...just a bit of frustration. thank you for your easy to follow guide

[@TheS1dney]

made this as my first bracelet today and it turned out great. thank you your a natural teacher

[@sohilaganta8773]

Sidney Bryman hey! 5 feet would be enough?

[@TheS1dney]

Sohila Ganta Hi it depends on your wrist size. If I remember I used 10ft which gave me plenty of room to practise the knots but cut off loads after.

[@sohilaganta8773]

Sidney Bryman hahaha thankyou soo much. :)

[@nanoguerreror]

Awesome bracelet! what I did find useful, but it changed the original bracelet a bit to rid the problem of the feed loop loosening due to excessive use was to add a slide knot between the stop knot to it and it worked super on it. It rid the problem of it loosening on you.

[@Steve-ls3yy]

First time here. Just wanted to make my own rifle sling. Didn't expect to run into Mad Max. Just click about 14 videos for "watch later". And clicked Sub'd too.

[@MFDBLACKESTHART]

This is great. 8’ was a bit short for me. But it’s a starting place and adding a foot made this perfect with minimal waste

[@EliteHunting1911]

Best paracord videos on the interwebs

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+EliteHunting1911 :D!!!!!!

[@biomgaming12-gamer93]

I agree this is THE best! Very interesting ideas ! Mad Max braclet is my favorite though **

[@MosesKenobi]

This has become my new favorite bracelet. I've made several over the past few days -- including a Manny-bonded OHSA Orange/Reflective Silver just now.

[@fph2060]

Simple but effective

[@meenakothari4404]

I think that these r the best bands in the world and the most beautiful and cheap.

[@MrDvlDoc]

I made a Black Mad Max knot bracelet. It looks great. I had to adjust the knot several times. This know will teach you patients.

[@davidenochs7572]

I wanna say thank you for this. I’ve already completed my first one by your design and it should come in very handy for my bushcraft hobby. Keep up the wonderful videos

[@Rzut-Oka]

Best snake knot tutorial video thanks!!!

[@marytabler644]

So sharp!

[@cmllluchador4935]

Awesome. Made one and looks very good.

[@TrendingPendingVideos]

I need help on last part where u pull the top loop to make the bottom 2 loops tighter the top loop gets too big and my knot isnt be enough as the top hole its really big or... Even if i get the right size knot when its on my wrist and the knot starts pulling the hold it gets bigger ?

[@johnbailey2299]

This is very cool. Very nice and simple to put on and off wrist. Your tutorials are always great and I find relaxing. Thanks.

[@blackicybear620]

I switched completely from knot and loop to the Mad Max style. It's a lot easier to put the bracelets on and off and you can make a bracelet for a friend or family member without measuring. But it is a great video

[@pristinabread]

Thank you very cool. Is there a trick to threading the cord if you don't have that cool knitting needle looking tool?

[@gonzalezgonzalez7027]

love your videos

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Thanks!

[@blackpitch9617]

Simple, classic, cool. It rocks! Thanks a lot 4 ur great and well organized channel *-*

[@PsychoDemonify]

I have been making the standard Solomon knot mad max style. The excess that you adjust to tighten on your wrist, do you let in just hang there, or do you tuck yours in?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+PsychoDemonify I just let it dangle there. But I've worn it tucked into the bracelet as well before.

[@PsychoDemonify]

Thanks for the reply. I actually started adjusting mine where it is pretty hard to get on, but once its their it's loose. There's no excess hanging that way.

[@fishingforlife2441]

+The Weavers of Eternity Paracord Tutorials did you like Mad Max??

[@vickibradley3120]

Didn't watch the movie...but love the bracelets. Thanks for the great tutorial!

[@elenachace1599]

I don't have a fid. Can I make the loop a bit loose and tighten it later?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+Elena Chace It would be hard to do that with this method. Just try to make the loop as small as possible.

[@mangesh13charming]

m not getting this cord in my city..... can i use leather cords?..... kindly suggest me alternative material please....

[@Frentorianid]

+Mangesh Dhere in theory you can use leather, I've used round strings for weaving. But actually any cord will do + you can order this thing on aliexpress, it's like 5$ for 40 meters

[@mangesh13charming]

+Kilo Ton thank you.... and i alrdy ordered it from aliexpress only...... best coincidence....but still thank you again.....

[@eddiemaxwell7593]

is there a way to make this knot thicker. this is my first bracelet because it's easy but I want it to be beefier. I have big arms so it looks tiny.

[@drschlump7832]

In my opinion, having it too thick does not look as nice.

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

If you tie the snake knot like the original method that I've taught, it will look a little thicker or you could use thicker cord.

[@chadtimothy2249]

I realize this is a couple of years old but still a great video! Some have complained of the zoom depth but you only need to focus on the point you are currently working. Only recommendation is at the beginning with the initial knot, use a small piece of scrap folded in half that you can tighten like crazy and leave to the end. Then when you finish (especially if you don’t have a fid) singe your bracelet ends to the scrap and pull it right through nice and tight!!

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Hey Chad, thanks for the comment! And yes that's a very good tip about using a small piece of paracord to tighten down the first knot. Thanks for sharing that!

[@ImJustSmooveLikeDat]

I really like this style bracelet. I can't wait to get home and start making it. I wish I had this color to work with. I think the toughest part is going to bet the knot. But, I'm sure I'll get it before I turn batty! Thanks for the tutorial.

[@dusanovsenak3827]

Thank you, great video!

[@clayballard6400]

I wonder if you could tie paracord around a coin to make a cool sort of key chain. Idk, could be cool. Nice vid! Love this channel.

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+Clay Ballard You definitely could, but I just haven't figured out a way to do it yet. Thanks for the comment!

[@akshidevi69]

Hi there..would you please do a snake knot neck lanyard (with buckles & a bead/hex nut)?

[@fabionesteles4838]

Thank you Very much!

[@GodsSignPost777]

I have a question for you. Is it possible to tie this knot with a core to make it a little larger in diameter for such as a dog leash?

[@scottsisk1527]

I like it. it was a good simple instructional video

[@CBL138]

Glad I found your channel. You mentioned the total length is 8 feet but did you start your loop right down the middle at 4 feet?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+C Lewis Yeah I started at the middle. You can always give yourself a little extra paracord to be sure you have enough.

[@bysalla]

in this tutorial you tie each snake not separately, but in your other snake knot tutorials, they are linked.... is there a difference? a reason I would do one method over the other? Thanks!

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

There's not really much of a difference, the linked snake knots is a slightly thicker bracelet. Overall though, they look almost the same.

[@anaarbre]

Very good. Other tutorials are so very hard to understand.

[@SolidSmud]

Could one use this method to conceal a steel ring, even if not for wearing?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Like you want to have a ring on the bracelet? Or you want to be able to take your ring off and then attach it to the bracelet?

[@SolidSmud]

+The Weavers of Eternity Paracord Tutorials Sorry, I should have described better. The steel ring would be the size of a bracelet itself. Could this method be used to conceal a large ring within the design?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Ohh, I see. So you want the bracelet to be rigid. I think it would be possible.

[@lotstothinkgaming]

Wonderful! I'm guessing if I wanted to add something like hex nuts, I would do it before I make a knot?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Thanks Trishana! You could incorporate hex nuts throughout if you wish, just add them as you go and yes, add them before you finish with the knot.

[@lotstothinkgaming]

Thanks for the help! Your channel is awesome

[@fishingforlife2441]

+The Weavers of Eternity Paracord Tutorials it is hard to make it but it is worth it!!

[@landondahle1767]

This was really fun to make and I would do it again. it looks cooler if you do the two single strand diamond knots instead of the one.

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Ohhh nice, that would look really awesome too. I'll have to try that out for myself! Thanks for sharing!

[@landondahle1767]

Thanks

[@tomaslukovics3780]

Thank you very much. Nice tutorial.

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

You're welcome! Thanks for commenting!

[@gaurangiverma7040]

I have a question and that is did u make the bracelet by using nylon cord or not????

[@hunterthompson5596]

What can I do to get the cord through if I dont have a needle to use

[@teamhansgruber4567]

How long should the weave be?

[@SocialContraire]

Very easy to follow instruction! My question is, given i do not have a mans wrist on hand to measure on, how many inches of cord is left when you pull it through the loop before making the end knot?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

It depends if you want a short cord when pulled through I think the minimum is about 2 inches or so. Any less and it will be really hard to get the bracelet over your hand.

[@SocialContraire]

ty for responding! and ty for teaching me a new skill!

[@imaginehydreigons5377]

how tight do you pull your snake knots? Is tight or lose better?

[@melodyjwilloughby]

where do u get that tool u used to push paracord thru loop?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

That's called a fid, I have links for it in the description.

[@melodyjwilloughby]

The Weavers of Eternity Paracord Tutorials I'm Sry but I didn't see anything n ur description about the fid...

[@luisehrlicher7866]

Nice stuff you produce, I love it!

[@meadowlarkgal25]

I have never seen a screw-on needle before. Can I purchase it from a craft or sewing store?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+J Kay They might have them at a craft store, probably not a sewing store. Your best bet is to get them online.

[@the-Nikk]

thanks for the tutorials it is help me a lot. but i seems have a problem. i've doin' knoting last 2 months and this video is my first bracelet. but after a month, knot in my bracelet seems starting to loose (not tight like the first time). i don't know why, can you help me? ow almost forgot, btw i use non nylon paracord... thanks a lot

[@ScallywagsTattoo]

Another great video. Thank you.

[@eLOVES1911]

Seriously love your videos. I just got done with my very first bracelet. Made it for my husband. 😀 So excited.

[@abdeldeniro7749]

I made my frist bracelet =D ,Thank your for teaching . Greeting From morocco

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Awesome! You're very welcome and thanks for watching and commenting.

[@claudiogoncalves4298]

What colour is this it looks great

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

This color is tan.

[@FincaElCasquillo]

thank you Tim. I hate wasting cord, how much did you cut off? Actually, I believe it would be kind to show how much is cat (wasted) when you make a bracelet (or any project).

[@joebotz1243]

Can I just use a bead on the end instead of tying that knot?

[@leyloskha6016]

Can anyone please let me know what the long thin metal stick which he used to thread the string through the loop is called ? Thank you. I am appreciate your answer.

[@michaelcoxon8462]

Leylos Khả it's called a fid

[@omardarwish9173]

it don't come out aligned what shall i do

[@Maximilian178]

Ah first time I tried it I didn't get the sling tight enough. Found out however that I can pull the stopper knot through on the opposit site to create more friction :D

[@fiddlebone7751]

Thanks. This helped a lot.

[@squeeze511]

how do you determine how much length to cut initially?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+Cesar Aguilar It's usually just an estimate. A lot of bracelets tend to use about 1 foot of paracord per inch of bracelet, but that doesn't necessarily apply to all patterns.

[@AkramAl-herwi]

What is the name of the cord. Is it as same as the cord used in shoes?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Hello, this is paracord. It's not the same as shoelaces.

[@madrascoolie]

i like this bracelet

[@meanf1502]

What color is that called an where do u get the one color u always use its like a black red color an cool video I did one just a few weeks ago

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

+Zx9r That color is Licorice. You can find it at paracord planet.com

[@imageblogger2142]

Really appreciate your stuff. Suggestion : why not (no pun) use a doubled piece of 550 scrap to hold the hole open? That way you can keep the hole nice and tight. Thoughts?

[@jboss7820]

Image BLOGGER Amazing idea! Once you're finished with the main knots, use the scrap as a kind of fid if you don't have a real one. Thanks for the idea

[@LSSWAPIT1978]

How do you adjust the not down

[@bd7mbn135]

一根这样的手绳用料要多少米的？

[@thawornjohnson7366]

Beautiful

[@peejaynecor4330]

just want to know what kind of cord need in this.??? is this cord same as the shoe laces????

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

This is paracord, it's not the same as shoelaces.

[@austinhall8684]

it is pretty simple to do i believe most of the people can accomplish of course it takes patients and a little time..

[@sadhana942]

really good useful to all

[@ZamaraMoon]

How is this as a quick release

[@xSO20]

can u make a process of shrinking the paracord? before and after?

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Ahh.. that's a good idea. I meant to make a video about that before, but just never got around to it. I'll keep it in mind.

[@xSO20]

and using an original mil type and other generic made in china

nice job

[@nimazarei5010]

thank you bro you are excellent !

[@bryanpacete8426]

Some of my companions told me to use shoelaces. Is it possible?? what do you think? i need more advises.. Thanks

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

You can definitely use shoelaces if you don't have paracord.

[@reneesmae1]

Very cool, like these kinds of bracelets w/o the buckle😌 Didn't know you could make these till I was in a Michaels craft store and I was looking for material for my nieces bracelet.

[@olegiatsyshyn5748]

Good job

[@benjaminsimpson6254]

How do I keep it from coming apart? The knots that is not the stopper knot

[@vickysandhu2225]

Nice one

[@bubblehead49]

l've saw a quick deploy belt but I haven't seen how to build it can you make one please.

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

I don't know if I have the time to do a belt tutorial as it would take up a lot of time and paracord. I'll keep it in mind for the future.

[@abdullayachi2648]

My wrist is about 19.5cm so how much paracord do I need like how much it takes in 1cm !!? I'm trying to make my first bracelet and I like this model

[@greatansh8293]

Can we use shoe lace at place of paracord

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Of course. It won't look exactly the same though.

[@ceriseetcerise3194]

[@KevinDugay]

Just made my first one and it was this design! Thanks!
