This video recommendation proves your phone is listening.. was just showing my friend my monkey fist my grandfather made in the 50's.. then I go on YT and this is my first recommended video lol.
They’ve been doing it for years. I tried to tell people and was laughed at. Apple told me there was no way the apps could do it. Then the apps admitted to it in their tos and Apple offered green and orange dots to let you know if an app was using your mic or camera. They’re all crooks.
This is true…, my son was talking about paracord bracelets and different things that you can make with paracord and this popped up on my TH-cam feed somehow
A suggestion: While winding the knot, each time that you complete a set of turns, stabilize those turns with several jumbo bobby pins. Each set of turns will remain straight and even as you draw slack out of the other sets. After completing the round of tightening, you can gradually remove the pins as the second round progresses. After the second tightening is completed, the pins will be gone - and the knot will be even and well faired. The third tightening can now be completed without risk of collapsing the knot.
@@davidgutierrez8228 - Get the "Big" ones. The smaller sort crap out too fast. Also, those little bungie hair bands are great for securing a knot or braid when you need to take a break from the work.
@@ritwik1410 - None that I am aware of. However, the pins are inexpensive and readily available. The rest is a matter of trial and error. “I don't think that we are a species or a people that can exist without making mistakes somewhere along the line.” - Harry Belafonte
this video not only helped me to assemble multiple monkey fist's, but it also brought me comfort and company on numerous occasions, thank you man! LOVE
So this seemed like a nice simple thing to do, just to pass an hour. Little did I know that this is some fiendish trick! I keep trying and it twists, it knots, it gets tangled! At the end of each try I throw it all in a drawer in a temper tantrum, which means an hour later I then have to untangle the paracord all from the crap that it’s mixed with! 😠 😡 Try number 7! I have now watched so many videos of “How to tie a monkey fist”, thanks to the ‘Algorithmic Recommendations’ on my feed, that I get nothing but monkey fist videos just taunting me, they keep taunting me, every hour of the day! 😂 😂
The first time I made one with a print out guide from the library with some real fat rope and no jig. Later I learned you put a ball in it, haha. I made one with no ball? Have now made two with the golf ball. First one paracord was a little bigger and not round but oblongish? The second one was sweet but then I really tightened it more then part of the ball showed. So far the tendency is that I over tighten the ends to help squeeze the nine parachords into alignment and by rushing to take more of the slack out faster it gets uneven. Going to try another one tonight. Amending now by doing more of them, not all 550 is the same. Got about five different colors and the red I got is a little bit smaller and its enough of a difference so the white of the ball shows a little. Thanks for helping to teach.
I'm watching my room mate struggling trying to use very thin twine string around a gold ball to make a monkey fist, rather than using the paracord I offered him lol
Thank You for this video, a Friend wanted a Monkeyfist with a Poolball. Had to make a Jig for it, but I appreciate your video, it help me refresh the process.
Thanks for the video! Best part was actually showing how things can get messed up quickly and how we would need to take our time to figure it out. How "bouncy" is this golf ball fist compared to a steel ball when striking with it?
Ok, so this has nothing to do with the monkey fist, but the 5/8" chrome metal buckles you sell, will I be able to swim with it and afterward it won't rust?
I created a cool bracelet, or at least I think I did because I've never been able to find it, its similar to the electric third rail. The only difference being that you alternate the side of the cobras knot in between the fishtail pattern, like a normal cobras knot and I called it the cobras tail because its a mix of the two names and it would be cool if you tried to make one but maybe like i said i'm just stupid and someone else already made that.
13:45 you started with 25' and repeated over and over that it was too long. So when you cut off all that excess, why not tell us how long the excess was? That would be useful information.
Will you be reopening your store in Lilburn? I've been using some of your paracord designs and videos and found out I live about 7 miles from your store. Sure would like to visit store and buy some paracord and supplies. Thx
Question has anyone ever tried to wrap an Easter egg I'm currently trying to find a video of that being done so I can try to keep the ends at one end of the egg
Would have been helpful if you told us how much you ended up cutting off. Especially after you stated several times that you had way more than needed. I am aware that you said "probably " only need 20' .
i raze money for cancer last year i razed $3,400 i have over four years and how i do it i make stuff out of paracored . I have a question for you Bored will Boredparacord give me a discount on since i use it to raze money for cancer?
soldering qty 12 .050 lead musket balls at 270 grains each together then doing 6 wraps is devastating 😢 small super heavy and will bust 1" boards all day long I love my monkey balls lmao
Thanks for the video but you can cut the first 4:00 minutes out of you trying to get 9 wraps. It was more excruciating than watching old people park on Tuesdays. lol
See he seems like a nice dude, but this channel should be called boringparacord. He gets the job done but it’s so hard to focus when all i hear’s heavy breathing. There’s barely any cuts, so It’s very dreadful to follow along with😂

Damn great fuggen idea thanks!! Never thought of bobbin pins lol

do you have a video recommendation that demonstrates this trick?

Fact : He doesn't monetized his videos

As always, the best instructional videos with plenty of direction.
You win the 2013 Dodge Viper?
Are you going to do the handle? I don't see it anywhere.
Thanks for the video! Best part was actually showing how things can get messed up quickly and how we would need to take our time to figure it out. How "bouncy" is this golf ball fist compared to a steel ball when striking with it?
You happen to have a link for the jig? Thanks for the video!!
Loved the vid, Helped me alot!! I cant get over how chill you are. Deserved a subscribe!!
you keep at it and you will get better at it
Tnx for this dude. Just asking how long the paracord is required to make this but its connected with a trilobite bracelet. It will be long right?
thanks for the video! ended up making one of those jigs out of scrap wood to help me
Ok, so this has nothing to do with the monkey fist, but the 5/8" chrome metal buckles you sell, will I be able to swim with it and afterward it won't rust?
How many feet and passes for a 2 inch ball?
Could you double the chord half the loops and have 4 strings left for a weave
Just add a second cord when getting to the handle that's how I do mine
Looked everywhere...How did you make the handle for this one. I have one sitting on my desk and have no clue how to make the handle
You did a great job! The end is my biggest obstacle when pulling the slack , Im making a smaller key chain Monkey fist , does size matter ?
biggest pucker at 10:00 xD i thought for sure he was going to lose it all
We’re did this guy go I wanna keep doing Paracord and he is the best
Took the first one apart. Second try is looking nice. Thank you.
Nice work love the neon turquoise color.
I picked up the same color paracord from Hobby Lobby today
You started with 25', how much did it take to do the golf ball
I created a cool bracelet, or at least I think I did because I've never been able to find it, its similar to the electric third rail. The only difference being that you alternate the side of the cobras knot in between the fishtail pattern, like a normal cobras knot and I called it the cobras tail because its a mix of the two names and it would be cool if you tried to make one but maybe like i said i'm just stupid and someone else already made that.

The end result is very nice, but holy crap I had to fast forward most of it!

Solid tutorial. Thank you for this Shawn
Question has anyone ever tried to wrap an Easter egg I'm currently trying to find a video of that being done so I can try to keep the ends at one end of the egg
I just ordered my first ever paracord from you! Very excited to make all the bracelets I’ve seen you make 😄
Im interested in making some of these. What size paracord are recommended for making monkey fist?
Well basiclly any that you have a lot of cord in
550
will u make a three color monkey fist video
1 u only need 8 passes. 2 leaving slack makes it way harder to do
Well done man.
Ok I have a question if anyone can answer is it possible to make a paracord belt using cobra buckles
Yeah, you can make nearly anything with cobra knots.
Thank you💚🧡🤎
~keep going🧵
how come you haven't been making videos lately?
You describe transitions so fast... After the upper ligaments, it is not at all clear what you are doing with the lateral ligaments.
How about just putting the golf ball in a sock? Saves time.
Would have been helpful if you told us how much you ended up cutting off. Especially after you stated several times that you had way more than needed. I am aware that you said "probably " only need 20' .

Video #2?
Cheers Mate!
Make the handle video please and if you already did where is the handle video i cant find it
I gotta learn this!
Nice work!
Harder said than done?
YES!
Thanks for the video but you can cut the first 4:00 minutes out of you trying to get 9 wraps. It was more excruciating than watching old people park on Tuesdays. lol
13:13 counted the same one twice lol
you should do a video on how to make a mask.
You are the best
great tutorial *****
i don’t have a jig so i had to use my fingers haha
There are two of us, because I don’t have the feedback either, so go for it.
I did eight passes with my hand it sucked lol. Minor cramping definitely needed the extra pass to be really covered and neat looking.
would help if you didnt just skip half of it ._.
loved it
Ur saying that’s a lot of cord? I’m using 50 ft!!!!!!!!
I wouldn't buy that i just made one in 2 minutes lol
right? lol
What size is the ball? 1.5 or 2
Its just a regular golf ball.
The jig has a “1 1/2” on it.
C'est pas mal le garrot à la place de la montre...
Super!
Nice
jeeeeezzz..... get at least some clothpins to clamp your cord while filming, this is hard to watch
😂😂😂 Forbidden in Germany
My country sucks
See he seems like a nice dude, but this channel should be called boringparacord. He gets the job done but it’s so hard to focus when all i hear’s heavy breathing. There’s barely any cuts, so It’s very dreadful to follow along with😂
please get back to me
I left at 2:54. The guy is useless, keeps letting the cord jump off the legs and he is extremely boring. This is go to sleep material.
Are you high? Or are these videos for a viewer base that are basically stoners? Cool video dude - very very very thorough.
