    Or feed the cord through so that it isn't pressing against the rough side.

  • @MyMomSaysImKeen
    @MyMomSaysImKeen 3 роки тому +4

    If you double the tabs (stack onto each other) it'll remove the sharper edges on the one side which will prevent rope fraying

    • @HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy
      @HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy 3 роки тому +2

      flip the tab over too, and double/tripling up the tabs might keep them from breaking in bad wind or rain/snow.

    My dad taught me that when I was a kid. He put a slight bend in the tab that helped it hold a little better. We didn't have paracord back in the day. It was thinner stuff.
