How To Make Cordage: Primitive Skills
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- Leg Rolling cordage is one of the most important skills that I have learned, and the way I was retaught by Tamera Wilder made it much faster and easier than the way I had been doing it before. Have you ever practiced making natural cordage for wilderness survival? Watch and try for yourself!

You are such a good teacher. Excellent video.
*thumbs up*
Just stumbled on your channel... you've got another subscriber here for sure. That is a great explanation and tutorial on simple cordage.
I just wanted to comment on the excellent audio and video work, you speak clearly and concisely, no speech disfluency. You come across as having practiced what you're going to say before you turn the camera on and for me that is a huge plus. I'll often shut a video off, regardless of how talented the presenter may be, if they stammer over words and are hard to follow. Top notch and keep up the good work.
+Randy Bear Thanks for sticking around, Randy!
Excellent video as usual Andy. BTW, I will have. A video coming soon showing a really cool kydex sheath for my ever so wonderful Tahoma Field Knife.
+Survival On Purpose Take your time :)
Really need more of these!!! Really helpful for noobs. :D
*thumbs up*
This is a gret video, and a skill that I'm most likely going to try out on one of my next trips to the woods!
*thumbs up*
Nice skill not often seen. After watching it I can remember my grandfather doing doing similar with hay.
*thumbs up*
I found you on Full30.com. I love your video presentation style... fast, basic (no "slang" only other survivalists understand), and straight through to completion. You, sir, are a good teacher.
Thank you for your kind words!
I'm usually trying to keep stuff like fishing line from wrapping around itself like that. Never occurred to me to use that tendency to my advantage. Great video.
Thanks Dan
Bro this is so much faster than twisting the whole thing by hand! Thanks so much!
*thumbs up*
LOL! Not two hours ago I was watching a video of Ray Mears using that exact technique to make cordage out of some stinging nettles, and, with all due respect to Ray Mears of whom I am a HUGE fan, I learned more from watching this video than I did from watching his! Keep up the good work Andy. I look forward to your next video!
BTW, personally I like these types of skills videos better than product reviews. I like those too, but I do like these better. The superb camera work & editing combined with just the way you present the material makes for excellent teaching videos!
+Gunslinger454 Ray is a better teacher than I am, plus his accent is second to none. I don't have constrains of editing time like he does, and that freedom allows me to explain things more in depth.
InnerBark Outdoors The material you were using may have helped as well. It's easier to see than the thin nettles, but don't sell yourself short. You're a darn good teacher when it comes to this stuff!!
great stuff Andy. Skilled people make it look so easy.
Haha it's not, took a lot of time to learn
Man, that's a pretty neat technique.
Thanks Rat!
I've never seen this technique. I will be trying this in the near future. You are easy to watch and a good teacher, humble and wise.
*thumbs up* Thanks brad!
Awesome video, haven't seen anyone else make a video like this, thanks for passing the knowledge.
+Alex Wright Thanks for sticking around, Alex!
I agree with the last comment. Best tutorial on cordage making I have seen to date. Keep up the great work.
*thumbs up*
Great video! My wife and I agree, you have some of the best, well thought videos, with little exposition. Keep up the good work!
*thumbs up*
Very cool. I need to try that. The reverse twist method really wrecks my hands and this looks less painful.
*thumbs up*
subscribed.... best explanation of making cordage ive ever seen.. thank you!! will be trying it soon
*thumbs up*
best survival videos out there. Great job!
*thumbs up*
That was very cool, thanks for showing how it's done.
*thumbs up*
Another great video Andy! Thank you.
*thumbs up*
I love ur channel n love the knife vids I wish I could buy the Tahoma field knife bit got cancer n kidney failure but ur channel picks me up thank you andy
+Steve Gareau I pray for your good health. Thanks for being a subscriber!
Thanks
Clear, concise instructions. Excellent teaching. Well done.
Thank you John
I've actually been looking for a video for making cordage. thank you
Glad you like Joseph
Great stuff Andy, thanks for sharing such valuable info.
Thanks gerald
Awesome video! More of this!!
Coming up!
Top quality video, everything about it was spot on.
Thanks!!!
i like it Andy...thank-you:)
*thumbs up*
Fascinating, thank you for sharing that.
*thumbs up*
Thank you! Really good technique. Now I can make cordage much faster! Gonna make a bag from grass fibers. I usually just do bow string since it's so time consuming, but now maybe I can to a bag for my backpack frame!
Glad you liked the video! Hope it does help out with your endeavors
Thanks, for the video, it really added to my knowledge, I just would have to do it with grasses, as most of the trees in this area aren't that great for cordage except River Willows.
*thumbs up*
Excellent video - thanks
*thumbs up*
Nice video, appreciate the skills
Thanks for learning with me!
Love these videos
*thumbs up*
Another great video. Seems so easy when you do it ! I don't have cedars in my backyard but i'll try with cypress...
*thumbs up*
Very cool, thanks for the tip.
+Bradley Birmingham #justthetip
very good I have seen 1000 s of youtube vids this is one of the best ones yet very useful in the woods to know this can be a life saver .
*thumbs up*
Great demonstration I'll have to give this a try. You made it look easy lol. -Eric
*thumbs up*
Great to know that skill. Looks like it would be pretty quick too. Thanks for that.
*thumbs up*
Thanks man! I really wish more people did cordage videos. It's to useful and everyone assumes you will always have paracord on your persons.
Check out the cedar withies video. I use it whenever I need to tie something quickly
that's awesome great video
Glad you liked
Thank you sir for this excellent videoclip! We have no cedar in Germany sadly. Will try it with lime instead. Kind regards from Germany!
*thumbs up*
Very informative. Thanks.
*thumbs up*
Superb video. I can't wait to try this method.
*thumbs up*
Awesome video guys. Very informative! I'll have to try this out
*thumbs up*
Thank you so much, this is so helpful
You're so welcome!
Great how to video! Keep them coming...btw congrats on your new gig as park ranger! Are you allowed to carry your own,weapon or theirs?...and,what are you toting?.....just curious
+sithlordpookie I carry my own weapons since they line up with agency guidelines. Can't tell ya what they are though
I've always wondered how to do this thank you very much ! Are you coming back to WV anytime soon
+nathanael jones I am! but I need to finish my tour in TX first.
That is fantastic!
Thanks Emmet
>>>MIND BLOWN!
hahaha
Awesome.
*thumbs up*
Well done video
way faster than reverse wrap! this is going to be my main way of prepping cordage unless I need specific strength and toughness with reverse wrapping
Glad you enjoyed this video!
Nice technique
*thumbs up*
Great method
*thumbs up*
cool skill to know. When using natural fibers like you are doing, do you wax it or otherwise coat the cordage for water repellency? Also, what would be for a guesstimate of tensile strength of the cordage you just demonstrated. I am not thinking about repelling with that material obviously, but would it be adequate for basic lashing/ building tasks related to shelter building?. Thanks for a very informative video, which would be very useful if caught out in the woods without adequate cordage.
+Andrew Bieger You could certainly add wax to the cordage if you'd like. I don't because its time consuming, and cedar bark weathers fairly well on it's own. The stuff I made is approximately 70lb strength, plenty for shelter making
+InnerBark Outdoors thanks for the info. I have watched other videos on cordage making in the field, and your method certainly seems quicker and with much less twisting/ effort.
Cool. Thanks.
*thumbs up*
*thumbs up*
Any chance of you compiling your videos like these into a wilderness how-to DVD/series?
*thumbs up*
i recognize that knife :-) EDC the TFK!
*thumbs up*
good video
*thumbs up*
A+
*thumbs up*
i really like this can u show me how to make a bow an arrows plz
+holy maze Check out my bow video from the Amazon
Cool video. Btw how strong is that cordage?
+jw112965 This stuff is pretty strong, maybe 75lb. If you double this up, it gets much stronger.
can you make a follow up video on how to make thicker cordage?
+Aidan Powers You twist the other direction, and follow the same steps.
Does leg rolling cordage sacrifice the integrity and strength of the cordage as compared to other twining techniques such as using your hands?
Leg rolling is faster, and if you do it correctly gives you very consistent twist rates which will dictate strength. You'll get the same results as with hand twisting in probably 1/4 of the time.
I saw a video of another gentleman that released the end he was holding and it twisted on itself. then he grabbed it again and rolled the two pieces. seems like you're way is a little faster and getsmore length done at one time, just an observation.
