Simple Paracord Ring

If you are anything like me, you love to make things out of Paracord, but hate to waist anything.
This simple (if over worked) Instructable (my first) should show you how you can use those annoying bits or Paracord that are often left at the end of making just about anything, but are to short to be of any use.

These rings are purely decorative, you wont see them getting Bear Grylls out of a tight spot anytime soon.

Where did you get that lighter? It is brilliant, and I want.
P.S. Nice instructable! :D

lol Thanks, its actually my second one ironicly the first was stolen, anyway I bought it at a shop that sells "alternative" cards and small gifts, its a chain called "scribbler", but if you are outside the uk that probably isn't much use to you.

"molten paracord can be painful" is a gross understatement. i have hurt myself 2 times on it, and each time it left burned pits in my skin, even after cold water. both are still healing. =(

I hope it wasn't as a result of this 'ible, I've been pretty lucky and only had a few minor burns.

Ehm... the German flag is Black-Red-Yellow.
The colours are right, but what you did is the Belgium flag ;)

[clintonmc]

Fair point, should have checked that. :)

but i love doing it in black para because it looks like a carbonfiber ring

nice, i attach two pieces of paracord together in a method similar to this, but i first pull out only an inch of the core, so that only one end has a core. i then take the end with a core and melt it 1/4in down, flattening it before it hardens. then i cut the hard and flat plastic end and cut it into a needle shape so that i can insert it into the other hollow end.

 Great instructable, but you should check all your spelling before posting.

He probably could use this for something...

[Lithium Rain]

If only to pee on it XD

[Kryptonite]

Eugh. I still can't get over how he drank his own urine. I can stand camel's innards. Goats genitalia. Skunk.

But not his own urine.

Nicely done! And easily adapted to bracelets as well!
