That's really fantastic, I'm going through and figuring out the differences in our technique. It's pretty similar but I'm a lot more haphazard with lengths and stuff lol

Very good guide. I just don't like glue.

Thanks bro, I just finished this 3strand paracord balearic sling using ur tutorial. Thought u might like to see the results. Awesome! Now I’m going to play around with the taper of the inner guts. And try some different fibers.

Nice vid Got into making bows so haven't braided a sling in quite a while, but now I have to try your method of braiding the knee and belly. Thanks for sharing this!
