    Thank you so much for sharing this method of Paracord joining, it’s worth the extra effort. I always felt that my melting joining weren’t strong enough and always prefer giving the best quality in whatever I make.

    • @sethrenville798
      @sethrenville798 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's actually not even very much extra effort, if instead of trying to stuff each end through the hole, you take a small pair of needle-nose pliers grab the opposite end, and pull it through, instead. Literally hassle-free, and significantly more sturdy

    There are two additional steps that make this much much easier. Learning - I tried this as shown - and was never able to get it to go through no matter how much I tried to melt and smooth. First step is - when you melt the ends of the outer cord to prevent fraying - quickly insert a large fib into it so it cools enlarged. Second, on the fib/needle end - cut a small amount of inner cord, melt the end of the outer to completely fit into a sharp, medium/smaller fib. Then do the steps in the video. The cords will slide right into each other. After that - take your lighter to heat the inner ends - roller them smaller between your fingers. Awesome joint.

    I've been taking super glue gel and putting it in between two sections that are slightly overlapped (3/16 at most) and then pressing them together with vice grip c-clamps with the oval pads. 60 to 90 seconds and I'm done. It works great and I have never had them fail while tightening a knot. I only do this when I'm connecting two pieces that are going to be used for decorative use and if the edges don't align I trim them up with scissors. I also know when I get a good weld because I can see the gel pressed completely through the cordage. The part where the sections are joined is flat but its so small and hardly ever lands on an exposed area. When it does I am the only person who ever notices it. I like this method though and I will have to try it.

    • @sethrenville798
      @sethrenville798 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just use the spike to poke the hole, and use a small pair of needle-nose pliers the pull the strand through, instead. It's just as easy as the other method, and is legitimately the sturdiest method you can possibly used to join 2 pieces of paracord; as evidenced by the fact that our street no longer has random captives running around town, foolishly thinking that because they escaped the dungeon, they were home free

      it is still stronger than melting the ends. a knot would be possible WAY stronger , a constrictor-like knot, BUT i think the point on this is to make a seemeingles joint, wich, with a knot, could restrict the cord from passing some kind of holes for example. But you are not wrong tho, is just a matteron where are you gonna use the joint..what for.

  • @Rood67
    @Rood67 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    After cutting out the inner stand, insert the tip of the fid before searing the end with the lighter. This leaves the melted end open rather than melting it closed. Then this process is much easier.
    Also, don't cut out more inner strands than absolutely necessary. These are doubled for strength, and cutting out to much gives a weak spot. Also, do the insertion as close to the tips of the inner strands as possible.

    @williamwelch7 8 ปีที่แล้ว +41

    What is the WLL (working load limit) on this type of splice? I have been a tree removal guy for many years, and as I understand kernmantle cordage, the inner strands, or core (kern) take the load, and the outer jacket (mantle) is simply to protect the inner core from abrasion, and not really take significant load. This may be a durable splice, but I don't see how it can take much load. Most knots reduce rope strength by 50%, and I think this would be even weaker than that. I was always taught that if the rope doesn't have to run through a pulley, a double fisherman's knot was your best connector. I suppose for decorative purposes it is fine, but if you ever intend to use the rope in an emergency situation, it could fail. Oh, and I think melting is just as suspect. Only a woven splice connecting the inner strands will maintain cordage integrity. I'm no splicing expert, but I have done a number of end, midline, and eye splices, and put thousands of pounds of load on them.

    • @Paracordguild
      @Paracordguild  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      William thank you for taking the time to put together such a well thought out comment.
      The "Manny method" is much stronger than melting together two cords. Naturally a spliced rope is stronger, but here you only have two woven cords to work with. So I have so far not seen a better way to join two cords together.
      The bond is strong enough for most decorative purposes. Naturally using knots such as choker knots (fisherman's for example) can be even stronger, but it is also much bulkier.
      In any case, glad to chat with you,
      Mark

    • @williamwelch7
      @williamwelch7 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thanks for the reply Mark. Love your videos, and have made several projects based on them. Doing a bit more research on tree rope, seems the Manny method has a few different manifestations, of sorts... but even high load-bearing ropes have eye-splices that are closer to the Manny method, than a traditional strand weave... I may just have to try it and put some weight on it to see. Thanks again!

    • @jarodmorris611
      @jarodmorris611 7 ปีที่แล้ว +28

      I never got the impression this video was showing this for purposes of weight bearing. Anyone that would see this and think they should use it for weight bearing has more issues than just lack of common sense.

    • @MeishaAthma
      @MeishaAthma 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      To increase the durability of the connection without making it bulkier, some Common Whipping could be done over the splice. Not sure how much it'll increase the load strength, but the splice would be better protected from wear.

    • @TheGhostGhillie
      @TheGhostGhillie 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      not only that... by using this, the core is useless as all the load is now on the jacket as the end of the core isn't connected to anything.

  • @stevesyncox9893

    • @you2tooyou2too
      @you2tooyou2too 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      If you expect heavy use (tugging or stretching), the kernel threads might bunch up along the inside of the cord, making the cord lumpy. To prevent that, before pulling them back inside after cutting them not quite so short, melt them together, and when threading the opposing line thru, stick the needle thru one side of the mantle & also thru the kernel, just behind the melt). this makes the joint a little bigger, but it cannot bunch up.

  • @Kevinegan1
    @Kevinegan1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Since the inner cords are not joined, wouldn't that mean that the splice is very weak and prone to breaking if the cord is under stress? Also, since the inner cords are not secured at each end, wouldn't that cause an issue with the sheath sliding over the cords and severely compromising the the overall strength of the cord as a whole? Seems to me that if the inner cords are not connected at the splice then the paracord would not be trust worthy.

    • @Paracordguild

      Hey!
      This is a method used to join paracord for decorative purposes. For practical/survival purposes you would not join paracord together this way, but use a sheet bend or a choke knot. This technique is used to make items such as bracelets and such.

      It would probably be good to put in the video title an description that this is for decoration only (I didn't know people used paracord).
      Also, in the video, the guy says it is "powerful", "very strong", etc. Which makes one think that it is a strong method to combine two ropes.
      It also looks similar to the weaving method that is used for the rope that doesn't have a core, and so for that rope, it doesn't diminish its strength at all...

  • @juanangel6642
    @juanangel6642 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It looks great, but that join is the weakest part of the cord since the threads inside are not joined in any way. So any tear on the shell and the threads may/will come out leaving just the shell. Good only for crafts but for holding or safety it is not.

  • @Beery1962
    @Beery1962 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You don't have a strong join though, because all you're connecting is the outer sheath of the paracord. The inner strands are just hanging loose inside the sheath. The sheath has a strength of only 300 pounds, so you've essentially weakened the paracord by nearly 50%. If you used a hot needle or an electric soldering tool to melt the inner cords to the outer sheath before you began, leaving a hole in the center to pass the other paracord through, I suspect the cord would retain much more of its original strength.

    I finally got it. It’s not as easy as it looks maybe use a smaller fid or modify your fid slightly.

    Thanks for the video. Looks great for decorative work.
    But for strength I get the impression that the cord is being weakened, as apprised to something like a reef knot.

    • @rbrtck
      @rbrtck 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +David Walsh The reef knot is stronger than this, but it is still one of the weakest knots you could use to join the ends of two strings/cords/ropes. Its breaking strength is only 45% that of the cord, but with relatively strong, slick cord this knot often slips before breakage anyway. If you need a secure but very simple knot to join ends (a "bend"), then at least try the overhand bend--simply put the two ends together as one, side by side and "pointed" in the same direction, and tie them both (as one) in an overhand knot (like the first knot you tie your shoes with), like so:
      th-cam.com/video/e46GXvdOJmI/w-d-xo.html
      While it's not very strong at only 50% cord strength, at least it's not prone to slipping. Another popular bend that may be slightly better (although it may loosen when unloaded) is the sheet bend:
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_bend
      Much better is the popular butterfly bend used by many climbers--we're talking about 70-80% cord strength plus no slipping, jamming (can be deliberately untied relatively easily), or loosening:
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_bend
      The double fisherman's knot (not the single version) may actually be very slightly stronger, but it's a pain to tie, in my opinion, and at the very least it takes longer. Probably better still, though, would be the zeppelin bend, which is similar to the butterfly bend:
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeppelin_bend
      None of these knots is super-hard to tie, and even if you're bad at knots, the overhand bend is super-easy, so there is no excuse to use a reef knot as a bend. It works OK as a binding knot (allowing you to tie objects together tight, or your shoelaces in slipped form), so use it for that, but not to join two cords. And whatever you do, don't use the granny knot for anything!

    When pulling them through the other... Could you not just take out some inner cord from the other side and make it smaller and easier to go through the hole you make in the outside shell? The worst part I would think was the first 1 cm to get through.

    • @Paracordguild
      @Paracordguild  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey!
      If it works, you should use it. The simplest way is to get a sharp lacing needle. I have also struggled at first when I used nose pliers to pull the cord through.

      Chiming in here - I would say yes. But in order to do that, you might need to snip a small opening with scissors (so to create a hole for the cord to go through) & quickly melt around that so to prevent fraying.
