Just wanna make sure I have the right thickness of the paracord, the link is three years old now. What is the thickness of the cord?

Put the organized bunch of cord in a sock instead of trying to hold it all makes life a lot easier

Torch style lighters are easier to use with paracord. They melt the cord faster and can be aimed more accurately. Also, when pressing down the ends I wet my finger tips first. I have been working with cord somewhat professionally for 3 years now, eventually calluses will form and the heat won't bother you as much. Also, good nylon cord is a must. Stronger, lasts longer, and easier to work with. Dollar store cord is not worth it. Great video, I'm about to wrap the wheel for my skiff.

Sadly, the camera is not capturing your technique very well. 4:39 literally looks like a magic trick. One frame there's 1 loop, next frame there's 2. Someone can probably 'figure things out' from what you've presented, but the process is *really* not 'coming thru' on video.
@chrismiller100Ай бұрын
Yeah, the second wrap is the most difficult part. Once you get past that, it’s smooth sailing. Unfortunately he didn’t capture that on video.

Incase you stated in the answer in the video, I had to watch video with no audio. How much paracord did it take to do this? My wheel looks to be the same size.

Thanks for watching. just buy it off amazon and whatever it comes in. I want to say it was 50ft. I know i said it in the video. check the link to the paracord in the description and that is it.

I do like the different look it gave the interior of my truck, but the main issue I had w/this was the gap it leaves at every spoke of the wheel so much so that I had to take it off.

@dinoharrison51384 жыл бұрын
Darn Chris, I did not look after I commented and see KZbin cut most of it off, SO, lets see if I can add on from Here:: "bulb" in the box. lol 😂 Come On, you can't set a guy up like that and expect him not to pounce. 👊 Thanks for the straight line! 👍 It looks just as nice this time as it did the first time I saw it done. It really dresses up the wheel as well as the boat. It will keep your hands on the wheel especially if they are wet. They clean up nicely with dish liquid soap "suds" and an old tooth brush. Good luck with the boat refurbish. Take Care, Stay Well, and God Bless ✝

Thanks Chris Completed my first wrap on my boat. Took about 1.5 hrs. The supply of cord and “sock feature” helped a lot. I would suggest white or bandage tape or a glove on a few fingers that pull the cord taunt. I have a picture of finished product Can I attach in Comment? Helpful video

Yeah no offense but melting the ends of the cord without tucking them UNDERNEATH is a really bad idea. Melted nylon can be as sharp as a knife
