[@BillHart_Family_Friends]

Just followed this method and built two Guitar Straps. Excellent, thanks for sharing this gem!

[@noshoesshawnseesshit]

this is going to be my first project for a christmas present for my son!

[@wolfgangbuck841]

Ooooo, a Celric Wrap would be awesome for a strap cuz it would really secure the strap on your shoulder, and Celtic weave would be kicka$$ on clothing like on Elbow patches and even pockets.

[@oneblog1532]

thanks for sharing the vid! will follow the tutorial to make a strap for my ukelele (:

[@niteshade8546]

A diy where the first step is “take out this custom jig” is a bummer.

[@KaiTenSatsuma]

"No special tools needed!" :Busts out a custom fucking wooden jig:

[@ParacordPlanet]

Haha! The jig isn't absolutely necessary, but it does speed up the process!

[@VictorSalazar44]

@@charliedolan1956 seriously?

[@alienbookman]

What a class act 😞

[@wolfgangbuck841]

Cool vid! Thanks. Have you tried weaving a Paracord Pool Cue Case? If you have or ever do, I'd like to see that. Even a Attache Pool Cue Case Wrap would be great to see! 👍👍👊

[@alienbookman]

Would there be any way to double the width of the strap, and maybe use two colors?

[@camgatz]

reaaaally wish you'd have used two different colors for the wide trilobite so I could see what it would look like. Otherwise fantastic video

[@ParacordPlanet]

Good idea! I imagine it would look similar to a two color normal trilobite. Might make a nice looking guitar strap!

[@alienbookman]

What is the name of the metal needle(?) tool that is being used for weaving? And, any suggestions where I can get one. I unable to understand the name (old man hearing). Thanks!

[@elijahmonn3757]

Hi I’ve got 30meters (100ft) is paracord. Do you know the maximum length of guitar strap I can get? Thanks, Brent

[@ninolopez8900]

I want that jig!!!!

[@Rol-E-Roll-da_real_1]

how long is the non-adjusgable part of the strap? great video btw

[@alienbookman]

I would like to know as well. 36 inches???

[@codyscott1682]

Can you do this without a jig? Or what would you recommend tying it to?

[@ParacordPlanet]

Great questions. The bigger the Paracord project, the more helpful it is to have a jig! Without it, you'd need two dowel-like objects fixed however many inches apart that you can eventually slide your project off of. Here's the jig we used in this video: www.paracordplanet.com/60-ultimate-jig/.

[@SweetCherrieePiee]

Does anyone know the length/width this strap would be once completed?

[@alienbookman]

He explains that at the end of the tutorial

[@okuratnywidz3196]

This board this is length guitar or length belt ?

[@jackwhite4214]

do I need the whole 100 yards? I only have 50 yards of paracord :(

[@ParacordPlanet]

You only need 100 feet-so 50 yards will be more than enough! 😊 Good luck.

[@jackwhite4214]

Oh seriously? Thank you dude

[@harrysemenick779]

so what do you have your jig set at??

[@ParacordPlanet]

The jig was set to 36 inches. The overall length of the final strap adjusts from about 46 inches to 56 inches.

[@harrysemenick779]

ParacordPlanet thanks. im makin one for a friend but he doesnt want the adjustable part. just all paracord. so i wanted to know how much i needed.

[@ParacordPlanet]

@@harrysemenick779 if you are making the whole thing out of paracord weave, you will probably want to go longer. A standard guitar strap measures about 40-60 inches.

[@dstott3604]

Would this strap work for electric guitar?

[@ParacordPlanet]

Likely. The adjustable slide might slip with the added weight, but otherwise it would work.

[@chanilewis6002]

Question is why wouldn't it

[@andreimadalin2526]

what is the diameter of the paracord? 4mm or 2mm?

[@ParacordPlanet]

We used standard 550 paracord for this project which is 4mm.

[@hannahedmonds6478]

How can I do it without a jig?

[@ParacordPlanet]

Hi, You would just need to anchor both ends to something. I've seen people use a makeshift setup with a big clamp on their dining room table, or nails in a long 2x4 board.

[@jean-pierrest-louis2830]

Sorry but it does not make the pattern you are showing at the end no way

[@Jackal_Blitz]

Uh yes it does. Have you tried it?

[@itsallaroundyou7085]

You know a guitar strap is like 10 buck?

[@ParacordPlanet]

Sometimes it's just about the hobby!

[@ninolopez8900]

It’s not really about the Hobby it’s about the look and color options. Have something stronger and that looks different
