I use two types of glue.

  1. Colorless glue “Moment” (Henkel), I glued interlacing lines.

  2. Glue “Contact” (etiltsianakrilat) I put on the ends of cord slice, so as not to disheveled winding.

Thank you Tatian.

Looks like the types we use and know about.

Making tools and decorating them is always fun.
Here is a pricker handle for fine line tied up with two different cords.
Very comfortable.

@SS369: I really like your color choice!

Thank you JD.

See I keep thinking that I need to make a pair out of 3-strand layed rope and then coat the inside with beeswax… Pair of those acorn baskets in the right size and colors would make a really cool set of shot glasses.

All the work shown here is fantastic!!

I am at the moment particularly interested in ditty bags, anyone got some of them to show here?

Hello Johnny,

if you would like a diagram of the cut sheet for a ditty bag there is a picture posted at this site > http://pineapple.myfunforum.org/about1549.html&highlight=

And at least one of the members here has site that he offers them for sale and inspiration. >http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/ropeandcanvas/page3.html

Enjoy.

Here’s two single lead pineapple knots. One in purple paracord another in some stretchy glow in the dark round lace.

I got mine from a local climbing gym.

Nice purple PK Scott.

B…

Thanks Brian!
It covered nicely considering I left the core inside the paracord. Next one with paracord I will remove the strands.

10-point starknot earrings of 1.4mm blind cord. No glue, no core.

Those are gorgeous little gems Vince!

No core? No glue? What then, magic? :wink:
Going to share a tutorial?

Cheers, you just made me remember that my wifes friend climbs at a club in the next town! I ask and see what they have.

My very first attempt at a ditty bag …

I used a purchased canvas bucket with the bolt rope removed for the bag (I have already hand-sewn a lifetime’s quota of miles of seam :wink: ) and used a couple of tricks learned from wydonknot for the lanyard and bag-closer thingie.

Red and black are the colours of my gaff cutter’s 1889 racing flag.

Attempt? You did it just fine SlipJig!
Too pretty for use. Now you’ll have to make another for working.
:wink:

Hi SlipJig,

Great looking ditty-bag! I love the idea of using the Star Knot for a gathering of the strands - great job!

Awww, geee, shucks, thanks SS & SR. ;D
