Overview

Paracord, which stands for parachute cord, was originally made for — you guessed it — parachutes. These days, people use the versatile rope for just about anything.

We want to see you get creative with it, so we’re launching this Paracord Challenge. Enter your amazing paracord projects to win a Leatherman multitool, a Fish Bone knotless gear tie, and more excellent goodies. Bear in mind that we will be considering the quality of your Instructable documentation, originality of the idea, and clarity of your explanation. Good luck!

Please be sure that your entry into the contest contains original photos and text. Entries without original photos and text will be denied.
