Well this is what i ended up with, its 32 inches long from the center of the pouch to the finger loop. It has a Balearic style release cord. a leather pouch attached to the braided paracord via timothy potters method. the release cord is a 3 strand flat braid that tapers by the paracord guts being cut steadily, thus giving a smooth no burn or knot taper. the retention cord is a 4 strand round braid. i think it looks pretty nice, what are your thoughts? Huh

I sorta do walter. So on each pouch strap there are 5 groups as ya know. On each strap it's 3 groups going one way and 2 groups going the other. When combining, you just gotta face the 3 groups on each strap toward eachother and overlay them one side at a time.

also that 3 part video is the one I was talking about in the PM sent a little bit ago.

Edit:

o also blowgunman baller job dude!!

Finished a sling last time I was 2000 years ago :
...
...
With its release cord at 125 cm (plus 17 cm of pouch), it is specialized in small peebles, those around 1000g Roll Eyes
Still have to try it to see how the attachment stand the stress.
