those should set you straight. If you are using 550 cord, you might want to wet it first. As it dries, it will tighten up.

Thanks for those sites...i was thinking of asking this same question this morning...

Where can I get that paracord and that other green cord(what is that) he is using in that second link???

You can get the 550 para cord at www.rangerjoes.com
or www.uscav.com
This is the real stuff, not the cheap stuff that a lot of places sell. It is about $5-$6 for 100'. Shipping will cost the same amount though. As far as the other cord, it looks like braided nylon cord to me. You should be able to get it at just about any camping/ outdoors retailer.

The Poly cord we use comes from American Cord and Webbing...

They will direct you to a local supplier...

The green nylon cord is made in Canada for repairing fishing nets...I don't remember the name...
