This was my second attempt at a long 2 bight turks head.I work outside and I am on call 24/7.My maglite gets pretty cold in the winter and this really helped.I also put a king cobra knot on it for a handle.After I made all 4 passes on the turks head I put 2 core strings for the king cobra before I tightened it.I used Bud Brewers tutorial on http://www.khww.net/ for the turks head.

This is a ocean plait I made out of rope I bought from Lowe's.I bought 50' of rope and had about 10' left over after I tightened it.My wife is using as a door mat.I got the layout from http://www.khww.com/.

This is another watchband I made.It has a 5/8" side release buckle on it.Here again I used 450 paracord.
This is a watch band I made by combining 2 cobra stitches.I found the tutorial on stormdranes blog.
This is a ocean plait I made for my aunt with my uncles initials on it.
This is just a key fob using a monkey fist and cobra stitch.

This is a strap I made using some 450 paracord.As you can see it's just a series of half hitches.The guys I work with gave me the idea and I thought I would give it a try.
