Question~~ you often give measurements in inches first then in cm. Did you grow up using imperial measurements? I thought Canada had gone metric system in the 70s?

saw this video today. never seen a begleri before. I went to my electronics lab, took 2 cube heat-sinks(bit bigger than the small balls) got home, had an extra pair of shoe lazes and i made my self a begleri.. i am really amazed how good it feels... thanks for the video.. much appreciated
I make these with a longer cord between them for curtain tie-backs. Once you twist them together and they are resting on the curtain, they'll stay put until you untwist then. If you leave the ends out, you can even make tassels and attach them to the cord.
@scarhead427 you can "sphere-orize" a thick round magnet with a bit of tape on both sides, over some filler material. Doesn't have to be a perfect sphere to make a pretty round fist.
Your older video got me into begleri, still got the first one i made from your video. You've gotten alot better at slinging since then. Thanks for the great content!
I made a set for my neurosurgeon… he plays with them all of the time… I got tickled one day when I went In For my check up and when I asked Andrew (the PA) where doc was, he said "he's still playing with your balls while on a call." Needless to say I nearly choked… lol… one, I don’t have balls and 2. Even if I did, my doc sure as heck wouldn’t be playing with them… 🤣🤣🤣 I made a pair for myself with the left over blue 550 cord… the "blue balls" jokes ensued… lol
@@julievrhackzor why do you think that? My doc came in the exam room to see me for my check up after surgery… I was playing with them and he asked me what they were… I told him and handed them to him so he could check them out… he thought they were pretty neat and that they could be good for helping rebuild hand strength and or mobility after surgery… I told him that they were more of a fidget type toy to me and kept my hands busy when I was just hanging around waiting for others or standing in long lines etc… he liked them so much, I told him he could keep them… that was a little over 3 years ago … Now, this doctor been my neurosurgeon for almost 10 years now … I won’t let anyone else touch my spine.l. He saved my life and literally gave me back the ability to walk again… i had my 14th surgery on my spine in February of this year… the Incident in my original post happened in March of this year… Andrew told me that Doc plays with those begleri balls all the time … I asked doc about them and if he still enjoyed them when he came in and after seeing how worn down they were I laughed and told him I would make him a new set…I asked if he had a color preference for the Paracord and he replied, "anything but blue!" I giggled and asked why even though I thought I knew the answer… he says that the comments and snickers about his blue balls just won’t stop… even after 3 years… the man has a wicked sense of humor :) as do I… so, just to be ornery, I said I would make him some pink ones… on my next visit in April, I brought him a set made from the deep red with black vertical stripes 550 cord… I believe it’s called fireman red… I get it at ParacordGalaxy . com (no spaces) …and yes, he loved them…
Something I started doing with my hex/hardware begleri is to tie a ranger bead with 225 cord on each side to hold the nuts down. It holds them surprisingly well,
I just saw your vid, Two Balls One String! I love it. My dear Son had PTSD and I think he could benefit from this game. I’ll be trying your video soon. I’ll might make or w/ small marbles first. That way I can order the steel balls. Which I’m sure have a better swing. Thank you for this video. Can’t wait to try it
I made ones at home from a random light green string i found and this is great! You got me into begleri into few days ago and it is great i can make those at home :)
I'm about to buy my first set from aroundsquare, can't wait to get them in the mail. I haven't made a set like these yet but I've made a few monkeys fists in practice but I'm going to make my first set today.. thx for these vids..
We had a toy similar but it had large plastic balls and a longer cord called bonkers ( that's what we called them). They were more along the lines of a weapon than a toy but gen x the two were synonymous.
Are you referring to "Clackers"? They were 2 hard plastic (I think) balls connected by a piece of string with a ring for your finger in the middle. My girlfriend calls them "knockers" and man did they hurt...the Clackers not her knockers.
damn, i NEED to craft this. i recently found out that i have adhd and when i‘m doing something not physically active i start to bite my nails out of boredom. it started when i was eleven years old and as a 32 year old adult it just doesn‘t look good and on top women really don‘t dig it. i was always looking for a fidget toy that has a high skill ceiling but which i don‘t have to pay too much visual attention to. i imagine that just by feeling how this moves you can get better at doing certain tricks. i always thought about starting to play guitar on the side but to start out on that i have to look up and memorize the chords first to blindly practice them. so having to do the research always kept me from starting with it. so i hope crafting this is going to be engaging enough for me. having a toy like that and learning to build a monkey fist on the side would be very helpful for me. so, thank you for the tutorial! i‘ll definitly try to build one
Every one and their mother has "something" these days. The best excuse for everything. I wish all these doctors that give out diagnoses like candy would just go to jail..
@@Sensei-Ollie lol 1. I am not from the US so keep your racial comments out of my face.

Same goes for many other psychological conditions and there IS a reason behind it. Take what you will from that. I am not going to get into a pointless debate with you.
I do this with the ones I was already born with. It takes some practice. Better if you start at an early age. I hope it becomes an Olympic sport someday.
I have 4 pairs, 1 with ball bearings and a longer string length. Then I have 2 pairs that have 9mm bullets as the cores. 1 longer length, 1 shorter length. And the 4th pair have .45 call bullets as the cores, at a medium length. P.S.- It's just the projectile (bullet). Not the whole round, there is no casing(brass). They were rounds I fired off and retrieved them afterwards. Weighed them, and they still weighed the same. 124 grain for the 9mm, and 230 grain for the .45 ACP. Lol both FMJ RN. Next time gonna use unfired JHP. Lol
I have only ever tied the monkey fist without filling the center but I find when transitioning from wrapping along one axis to the next (you called it something like 90 degree turn) I make a diagonal across on the first quarter of the first wrap. the subsequent wraps in the same direction hide the crossing section and the wrapping order is reversed (i.e. from pointer finger to middle finger the first time, if starting as you did). This version changes 2 things: the axis-change is closer to invisible on the final monkey fist and the ends exit the fist at the same "corner of the cube", which for other applications could be more in line with personal preferences. I guess I will have to try it to see if the ball bearing will make the hidden crossing section of cord show as a bump on the three wraps above it or not.
Thanks for that, I've always got paracord for bushcraft, and loads of steel ammo, as I shoot slingshot competitions. The first monkey fist I pulled apart as I wasn't happy, but the final two were spot on. Now to play with my balls. 👍
Question which may be answered below... I get the "melt the end and tuck it into the wraps" part, but how can you then tighten all of the other wraps? I find that the cord is fused to the melted end, and I end up breaking the sealed nylon by pulling. Am I misunderstanding the step?

Oh.. I know exactly what you're talking about. The instrument you're thinking of is the called an asalato or kashaka which is made of two balls or gourds that are filled with pebbles or beads and then joined with a string between them.
I'm happy to say I came up with this idea and made it a while before this video came out. Not saying I'm better or anything it's just nice when you come up with something unique and then someone else comes up with it and thinks it's cool.
Can you use craft Paracord for these? That's what I have for now that's why I ask. I have the kind for crafting bracelets from the craft store because I liked the colors and I can't afford 550 till after Christmas
Yep, you can use whatever paracord you have on hand. However, polyester paracord might be a bit stiff for this kind of project. But if you have nylon or if the cord you're using is soft and flexible, it should be fine.
Keep in mind its actually illegal to tie this knot in a lot of states and countries. It used to be tied over a rock or pool ball and used as a flail to assault people. It can be a very deadly weapon. Same reason why brass knuckles are illegal in so many places.

Do they make spherical magnet? If that existing, this can be turned into magnetic curtain tie
@@scarhead427 That would be very interesting indeed.
Good idea
I use 3-4 pass monkey's fists for door latches... attach the open end to door, drop into an appropriately placed hook to hold..

I took the idea of the begleri and made my own version.
I took two Nite Ize s-Biners, tied them together and spin them around my fingers. 👍🤠
I used small pebbles instead, is it fine?

I'd like to see you try that with the Clackers we had as kids! Ha!
How many ft do I need for this.
thats what the doctor be doin to me at the physical
Whats the thickness of the paracord?
Half inch is 12.7 mm. Would you use 12 or 13 mm balls? Or it depends on your hands size? Maybe doesn't really matter?
I think I heard a song long ago regarding this. I believe what you are playing with is referred to as a “dingaling”.
