    I would be happy to do a tutorial but I use a special tool for pulling the ends through and I cannot think of a substitute for the tool. I had them made by a buddy. I should be able to post it this week along with a picture of the tool. Be advised without the tool I would have given up.

    On another note my favorite kilt belt is a bit long so I made and extra braided paracord belt loop to hold the excess. Came out great. I will post a pic of that too.. I usually have some paracord on hand-

    I used to be an outdoor educator in a former life and we used a whole lot of p-cord (as we called it) on our high ropes courses. I still carry quite a bit of it in the back of my Jeep, along with a tarp and some tent stakes...just in case.

    I have to admit, I didn't know pink paracord existed.

    I used to make keychains out of para-cord in Germany.
    I must admit, it's been so long now that I've forgotten how to do it -
    although I do remember you take the filament out to flatten the cord.

    It'd be cool to see a tutorial
    Cheers,
    Dave

    Paratroopers (active & retired) should add this to their casual outfit.
