Wow that’s a work of art , can’t wait to see the final results

@Morphy Sticking yourself with a cattle prod would be simpler and possibly more effective since you are clearly actively seeking pain and punishment.

If u need a brand, mine just came in i can let you burrow it,

In the videos the braiding is being done by knotting the cord at an anchor point and looping it around the fingers.  After passing one of the loops through another, the braid is tightened by moving your arms away from each other.  So the length of the cord is limited to an arm length.

My thought on using longer cords was to tie a simple overhand knot (I will refer to this as the mid-knot) in middle of the cord (not precisely the middle, but 2 - 3 feet from the anchor knot).  Then roll up the extra cord.  You could then braid with the mid-knot acting as the loop.  But as said, the additional rolled up cord would need to be held somehow and passed through the other loops as you braid.  When you start to run out of cord, the mid-knot can be untied, and a new one made further down the cord.  Continue braiding, and repeat.

Let me know if that still doesn't make sense.  I think I can take a picture to demonstrate much better.

Hey!  To resurrect a dead thread...

I've been watching Ingrid's videos recently too!  It seems like a perfect way to braid a sling since splitting and joining is built right into the method.  I just haven't been able to figure out how to make the first few cycles look very nice.
