Well, you can tie up a sling into a ball with a stone inside of it and sling that.

Eleven strands! Very nice. I have braided  a 7 and a 9, but I think 5 is plenty Wink Again, nice work!

These are my balearic slings I've been making lately, two of them are thinner long slings(one 80cm and other 100cm) and another four are short slings(45cm, one with release tab out of paracord) and one medium sling(60cm). Shorter long sling looks like crap, that is why I use it the most.

Not a looker but a reliable sling made of gutted paracord, 3 strand flat made up of 6 strands in a 2-2-2 fashion,  pouch straps jsut as wide as the sling straps. Very silent and no taper like I desire. Quite light for its size, and very free from oscillations. No release knot, just a full fist grip on the smooth cord

Whoa some really cool slings all the sudden! I love them guys!

That strap sling is cool. Does it work well? I want it to work regardless of how it does. It looks awesome.
