I've been hunting for some nice closeups of a braided D-guard on a Busse, but haven't been able to find a good one. I'm plying with some paracord and am interested to see how others have done theirs. Does anyone have a copy of some pictures available?

Thanks!
 
Strabs was so gracious to share this one with me. I hope he doesn't mind if I post it.

Good Luck :D:D
 
Thanks Eric! I've been trying to find those pics to help guys figure it out and I think I cleaned them out with a bunch of other stuff when the badtrans virus infected my system:(

Get ready for some raw fingers when your done:D

A couple hints how to get started:

One peice of 550, 10-12' long.
Three runs between the two talon holes. (Loop it loosely through them both twice)
One end (12-18" roughly) hanging out the rear talon hole, and the other(long end) starts the pattern at the front talon hole.


Good luck,
Kev


(btw, thanks to John who originally sent me the pics)
 
Beautiful picture, and thank you for the instruction as well. I was playing with some other braiding patterns, but I like your version in the picture better than anything I've come up with yet.

Thanks!
 
CJ,
If you come up with any tips while doing yours, let us know. I've never been able to get mine to look good ;):D
