Just discovered these thing this afternoon. I saw this video, and after a 15 dollar trip to the hardware store, I was up and running in about 15 minutes. Burned my thumb trying to pull the melted cord, but it was worth it!
Since you had the superglue anyway, giving the knots a couple of shots before trimming off the extra will make sure they never come undone, and you can skip the melting with a lighter part. Also, you can embed the knots in epoxy in the nuts -- they'll never come out. Nice tutorial!
Well done sir. I was looking around at variously priced pre-made begleris, but I'm going this DIY route...perhaps stainless steel nuts with a red cord.
Thank you! Glad you found this helpful. I started with similar sets before I purchased some. Helps you to know what you like before you buy. Or maybe you will find you don't need to buy after all :). That sounds great! Best of luck to you, and thanks for the comment!
I remember seeing similar ones in Thessalonika, Malta and Izmir. They were made with chain links and weighted end weren't nuts, but the same concept. These older gentleman were good at using them. They'd be drinking and talking and that thing never stopped moving. I never knew the name of though. Is it Bulgeri?
That's neat! The name I am familiar with is Begleri. Not sure if it was the same thing as what they were using or not. I don't know much about the history. Some great information is contained here if you are intersted :) www.aroundsquare.com/begleri/
Very nice work. I like it! I wonder if you could even take a pice of black heat shrink tubing and put over the hex nuts just to add a little protection for your fingers? Again, good job, I'm going to try to make my own too.
Thank you! You definitely can! In fact I have seen at least one other person do that on the begleri enthusiasts group on facebook, and it looked great! I appreciate it, glad to hear you're going to make your own. Good luck and have fun!
Thanks! I really appreciate it! Glad to see a fellow believer on here, seems to be getting rarer as the days go by. But God is still good, and he is working in this world! Check out the description for links to some great tutorials, good luck!
I found a cheap socket set in the garage it contained both metric and sae all you have to do is match diameters and you now have some cool looking beads maybe you should make a video on it.
I prefer monkeyfists around 1/2" ball bearings for quality, plus no need for glue, etc. I suppose it's not quite the same shape as the beads, but you could change that if it really mattered. But this looks great for quick n easy. I'd recommend gorilla glue instead of 2part just for ease, and use the lighter metal/back of finger nail to pinch hot nylon sooner so it bonds better.
I just have a quick question I hope someone could answer. Approximately how much would this cost? Thank you for whoever can answer this and great video man keep it up. Have a great day😁😁😁
Not sure exactly. If you have the cord, and the super glue laying around like I do, and if you skip the silicone tubing, not more than a few dollars. If you don't have any of that, it'll obviously be more expensive.
I think a finishing touch would be brass (gold colored) plugs that screw into the outside ends This would 1) hide the end of the cord and prevent it from sliding, and 2) give it a nice finished appearance.
when i was a youngster we had a toy we called cacklers basically thear wear to ceramic balls attached to a string with a small handle between them when they bounced together they would clack hence the name cacklers thay quit making them and i have not seen a pair scene i was a small boy do you think you can make a set
Thanks so much! It's really personal preference. It doesn't really make a difference to play, only to how it feels. I prefer them like this now, but I used to glue them, it's up to you. Also the vinyl tubing fits the cord a lot tighter so they don't slide as much.
Also, I'm assuming, it helps to keep the cord from fraying by removing any friction and not allowing it to come in contact with the threads of the nuts . ??
Sweet! A bit of shrink tubing, or wrapping them in some athletic/duct tape will help. You can also try making this set out of bouncy balls untill you get used to it: th-cam.com/video/GZFetr3cj6c/w-d-xo.html
It stings your knuckles a bit at first. Might get a few minor bruises at the very beginning, but you get used to it. If you're worried about it, you can always wrap them in tape, or apply some shrink tubing to them.
Yeah it's a bit painful at first, this is more for advanced players. It don't even notice it anymore. Check out my video on making them out of bouncy balls, they feel much better on the knuckles: th-cam.com/video/GZFetr3cj6c/w-d-xo.html
Those tricks were nuts

Nice tutorial!
Great ideas! Thank you!
I ended up heating the end of the tube a bit with the lighter. It worked well!
Glad to hear it!
Thanks a bunch man! nice vid!
Very straightforward and simple, just great work!
Thank you so much!! So glad you liked it!
SharpshooterJD Is there any string other than paracord you would recommend for this?I don't think they sell it where i live.
And there arent many hardware stores here too
Thanks for the tutorial man! I made some of these last night i used orange paracord
My pleasure man! Sweet! Glad you made some!
Is the Measurements for those nuts in metric about 10mm and 8mm and that piece of paracord (distance between nuts) 11.3cm
You are correct!

Thanks so much!

NEW SUB...Mainly b/c you are a believer! Somehow ran across this vid...very cool! I want to learn to use one. Thanks!

i am from greece.. nice Job..
Awesome, thanks!
SharpshooterJD you are good
Thank you!
much cooler than a fidget spinner
Agreed :D. Much more challenging too.
I love you
Nice....hope i get.the raw material and get started soon
What can I use for a replacement for the nuts because I'm not old enough to buy them and my parents don't want to buy any
I found a cheap socket set in the garage it contained both metric and sae all you have to do is match diameters and you now have some cool looking beads maybe you should make a video on it.
Nice! I have seen others do that and I would have too if I had had a socket set laying around. Sadly, I couldn't find any that were the right size.
thank you so mutch, this is a realy good vid!
this is a very good fidget toy and self-defense tool!
Definitely a fun toy, pretty sure it would fail as a self defense tool though :).

Good Video👍
Thanks!
I am from greece here cost it 1 euro
NICE job men
Sweet! Thank you!
I know i'm 5 years late but i have to ask, are you playing short game begleri? And how tf did you get so good?
MARVELOUS BRO YOU ARE ASWM
Thanks bro! Appreciate the kind words!
Excelente trabajo. Es óptimo para ejercitar las articulaciones de la mano.
¡Muchas gracias! ¡Ciertamente lo son!
clean build.
Thank you!
Do u personally come up with these projects?
Some of them yes. This one I definitely came up with on my own :). But a lot of them are inspired by other people's ideas.
I just have a quick question I hope someone could answer. Approximately how much would this cost? Thank you for whoever can answer this and great video man keep it up. Have a great day😁😁😁

Nuts can heart your finger bones but I like the idea to make thum chunks 🙂
Good job kid.Thanks
Thank you!
Your house is very beautiful!
That's my workshop, thanks!

Спасибо классный совет, мне конечно больше нравятся русские четки, но и беглери интересно выглядят, надо сделать
That's cool man, thanks for sharing
Brad Newberry Thanks man! You are very welcome :).
I think a finishing touch would be brass (gold colored) plugs that screw into the outside ends This would 1) hide the end of the cord and prevent it from sliding, and 2) give it a nice finished appearance.
Sounds sweet! You wouldn't want to add too much more weight though. Let me know if you do that!
I didn't have nuts so I made with bottle caps and it works 👌👌😎😎
THIS was awesome video bec i cant find it in any shop near me but can you make it with magnets
sharpshooter can you make it with magnets
Thanks! Not sure, maybe.
good job
Thanks!
Thank u
Loved ur job ... m looking forward to more :)
Thanks!
Thank you so much this was great!
You are very welcome! Glad you liked it!!
when i was a youngster we had a toy we called cacklers basically thear wear to ceramic balls attached to a string with a small handle between them when they bounced together they would clack hence the name cacklers thay quit making them and i have not seen a pair scene i was a small boy do you think you can make a set
Not sure, sounds like a cool idea though!
Like this right? That's so cool :D. th-cam.com/video/FLHftISLNHE/w-d-xo.html
how thick is the cord? I was thinking about driving to ace hardware to get some
Just some 550 Paracord mate
good video brah
Thanks!
cool! i might make one of these
Awesome! Good luck, and have fun!
Hi brother can u show step by tricks to learn it. In this video you are showing very fast but could teach us slowly steps to learn
Thanks! Nice vid!
Thank you!
Can you make a set out of blasting caps?
thats dope dude
Thanks so much!
has the weight something to do how gut they are?
I assume the nuts wont slide down the cord?
nice video..!!
Thank you!
Im assuming you gutted the paracord to make the knots that small
Yep, I mention that right at the beggining of the video. I'm using de-cored 550 paracord.
GREAT JOB !! Wouldn't it Help if the Nuts Weren't Free to Slide On the Cord.........Like Maybe Glued Into Place ??
Thanks so much! It's really personal preference. It doesn't really make a difference to play, only to how it feels. I prefer them like this now, but I used to glue them, it's up to you. Also the vinyl tubing fits the cord a lot tighter so they don't slide as much.
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO & REPLY........FIRST I'VE SEEN THIS ........COOL & I WIIL MAKE ONE SOON !!
Awesome! Good luck!
can i use shoelaces or is that a bad idea?
Yep, shoelaces work great! They won't last as long as paracord, but they tend to be a bit softer. The softer the better!
Cool!
Thanks!
Is shoe lace fine ?
Yep!
As long as its not flat
Interessante. Parabéns!!!!
obrigado!
Yes easy begleri
Is that rope is stretchable????
UNKNOWN Not really. It's pretty solid.
SharpshooterJD thanks ill make one
UNKNOWN Awesome :). Good luck!
Greetings! Use titanium knife beads
what else could you substitute for paracord
Shoe lace, or any type of 3mm, or 4mm cord. Honestly anthing, as long as it is thick enough, flexible enough, and won't cut your fingers.
I like it
Thanks!
Nice job man!
Thanks man!
I already got da nutz and the string. Heh heh heh
Thank's For Share Ide (Y)
I saw u resisting the knocking on ur knuckles...😂
You are AWESOME
Thanks :D.
I'd probably need to wear a full face helmet if I start practicing with these.
great
Thanks!
i cover the nuts with some 90 paracord on each side so they hurt less
What number does the nut have to be?
شكرا جزيلا لك يا راجل
cool
cooooooool
:D
What is the purpose of the vinyl tubing?
To center the cord and keep the knot from slipping through.
Also, I'm assuming, it helps to keep the cord from fraying by removing any friction and not allowing it to come in contact with the threads of the nuts . ??
Nice
The knot is the knot because the knot is the knot
so what do you do with it?
you should make an epoxy called JD weld
goteeem! ha, goteeem!
where can i find begleri tutorials?

Thanks :).
what is it for exactly?
What’s the purpose of these ?
Just a skill toy
thanks that is so cool :)
Thanks! Glad you like them :D. You going to try to make a set?
SharpshooterJD yes I 'll try
Awesome, have fun!
SharpshooterJD tnx :)
I am going to make one. One question does 275 cord fit in it
i made it BUT it hurts,, PLS ANY SUGGESTION
Sweet! A bit of shrink tubing, or wrapping them in some athletic/duct tape will help. You can also try making this set out of bouncy balls untill you get used to it: th-cam.com/video/GZFetr3cj6c/w-d-xo.html
does that not hurt
can i use a nylon rope with same size?, instead of paracord?
Probably, it might hurt your fingers a bit more though.
does it hurt?
It stings your knuckles a bit at first. Might get a few minor bruises at the very beginning, but you get used to it. If you're worried about it, you can always wrap them in tape, or apply some shrink tubing to them.
on the real tho, are those low thuds the nut hitting your knuckles? ouch man .
Yeah it's a bit painful at first, this is more for advanced players. It don't even notice it anymore. Check out my video on making them out of bouncy balls, they feel much better on the knuckles: th-cam.com/video/GZFetr3cj6c/w-d-xo.html
Good job kid!
Thanks man!
👍
Bien lo tuyo Tulio!
cool bro
