Wow Mark, it looks so easy. Now I'm going to try it the usual 10 to 15 times until I throw the big bird nest on the floor and watch a video of a soothing waterfall. 😂
I do try to make it as clear as possible. Still, it does take practice. I did throw a nest myself at the start of my knot tying journey. Not my proudest moment, but still, could be way worse :). Patience is the mark of a good craftsman!
@@Paracordguild you do make it perfectly clear. I just get distracted easily and lose my train of thought. It was my attempt to be humorous. Keep up the good work.
Another great tutorial Mark. My only observation is that I would've filed the alloy tube ends a little, just to make them neat as over time I believe that the rough ends will frey the cord. Cheers from Australia.
@@Paracordguild I mastered the Turk's head… but the Gaucho Fan Knot eludes me for some reason and I can't figure out WHY!!!! Do you think you could do a tutorial on on that is a LOT smaller … like not as long… and make it on a 2 or 3 inch mandrel? Maybe if it’s shown on a larger scale for teaching, I might be able to figure it out…. I think it’s because these are so much tighter that is more difficult to see everything…. That’s how I figured out the Turks head…. I had one of our scout masters who is a knot guru like me (except for these fancy gauchos lol) show me how to tie the Turks head on a 3 inch dowel… we were making woggles for our scarves…once I was actually able to see everything better on a larger scale, it just clicked…. I’m hoping this would be the same for this gaucho… so, anyway…. If you think you could make a tutorial like that, I would be soooooooooooo grateful!!
I have yet to be successful at doing this type of weave. I really want to try this. I need to find the metal tubing that you used that I can use my hand saw to cut through.

Easy knot and it looks amazing. I like your idea of using the aluminum tube.
A core makes these knots lay nice and evenly. It is not a must, but I like it.
Another great tutorial Mark.

Quite so!
My cuts in general were relatively smooth, but some filing/sanding could indeed be helpful!
No matter how hard I try to make these, I never get the right… you amaze me Mark!!!
I do try to make the tutorials as clear as I can. Don't give up!
@@Paracordguild Oh Mark, my dear friend… your tutorials are perfect… it’s just me that isn’t! :)

Looks amazing. Nicest paracord keyfob have ssen in long time.
Glad to hear you like it! The pattern and colors came together nicely I must agree.
Really nice! Excellent video, thanks.
Another great tutorial. Thank you very much for this.
great video, It's all new to me thank you

Used a hand saw as well. Most tubing will work in this dimension. Be it brass or aluminum.
