    Nice video and great tips. Here’s one I use the most. A wood burning tool with the flattest head attachment. It doesn’t flame up and melts the paracord perfectly with way more control. Give it a try!

    Thank you for the info! I love the patterns that are possible with the stamp method - definitely something I'll need to try on my next project.
    That said, I may add an additional method - if your stands are being left long for some reason (as mine tend to when making LARP belts) I like to crimp the melted end in a pair of flathead pliers to give a flat end, or use a pair with a grip pattern for a patterned effect.

  • @TheSaneHatter
    @TheSaneHatter 3 роки тому +2

    It looks like the Leatherman file and the Sharpie for me: I already have them to hand.
    But it would also be worthwhile to discuss exactly what tools one would melt the paracord with: you, for example, visibly prefer a "butane torch" lighter (nice and tidy) while so many other people use Bics (cheap & available), and I carry a Zippo (for hands-free use). These relative pros and cons deserve some illustration, one of these days.

  • @karensharman307
    @karensharman307 3 роки тому +1

    I use Smoothing tool. I find I get the best results with it and also if I have cut the end of the cord to short I can still flatten the ends to finish.

    I know this video is old now but I just started working with paracord and a way I found that works is... After you snip your end, cut out as much of the inner core stands of the paracord and then burn it. It leaves less glob. That's just my way though lol. Thanks for the suggestions.

    I am a complete novice. I have tried several different heat sources but tend to melt the area around the end also. From this video and a couple of other ones, I obviously am holding the butane torch to close.
    I'm very interested in the torch you use. it seems like the flame is extremely small and sharp. I think that works very well. I have also (as one commenter below stated) used the soldering iron trick. It works well for me. I have a butane one (the pencil looking thing) but you have to have it lit all the time so the end is extremely hot. I'd like to know your torch brand. Thank you for the video.
