You went off screen after you took the pencils out. You didn't show which way to feed after your second 7

Love the homemade jig! I’ve been trying to think of a way of avoiding paying $35 for a commercial made jig. Thanks for sharing! That is really helpful.

Slowly realizing it was a mistake to try my first one with a baseball. Either way this video definitely helped and described it the easiest way I’ve heard. So thank you for helping out keeping this super simple!

I'm somewhat new to cording. Have done mostly simple macrame projects. I am currently interested in jewelry making, using 2mm cord.I have watched a bunch of tuts on the monkey fist. I found this one an excellent demonstration and explanation of how to make the monkey's fist. I was especially interested in the jig. I would love to see more diy tools like this. I have added two to my little kit: I use a straightened paper clip and a bobby pin for jigs. Which one I use depends on the knot, or what I'm trying to do. I typically use the straightened clip for weaving an end into other threads. A bobby pin is a good jig, but if you're using the standard kind from a dollar store, you have to account for the open ends. You can get ones that are more closed and straight on the ends, but the paper clip is sufficient for my projects now. Right now I am hung up of mastering the double diamond knot. I have it all correct til the end where you dress it. Mine are coming out all crooked looking. Be blessed!!

Good video. The only complaint is the work goes out of the frame.

Thanks would be nice to do it again and video what you are doing instead of the table but got the gist of it.

Explained very well. Love the idea of cardboard. Thank you

I never thought it would be this much of a headache when I found a pool ball and googled cool crafts using an 8 ball but now im obsessed with paracord crafts

Thank you. This made it way easier. I used a 2 inch Damascus steel ball bearing. It's a beast.

Excellent tutorial. So, I got all the stuff needed to accomplish this mokey fist... ended up with a sock.

Dang it, I've been wanting one of these. Finally found this channel. Good stuff man

great job diy. can't beat the price

The burp master 😂

Jig is brilliant!

Edit it and preview the clip before posting ! A lot of the instructions were out of camera shot.

Very clever diy jig.

Great video man! Keep up the great work!

*I really wanted to learn how to do this, but a lot of what you were doing was not in the camera's view. Plus if your hands were closer to the camera, that would have also helped a lot. Maybe next time. But thank you for your time and for trying.* 😀

Good video man, I had some hurdles with the cardboard as the pencils kept falling out so I laid down tape on to the board to make it more rigid, if any one is struggling with that part.

I’m new to paracording and I want to say awesome video I wanted to make a monkey fist but when I seen you really needed a jig I’m like wow I can’t make it without one. Then I found your video and you have a simple jig diy I love it thank you so much.

thanks! this is by far the best and easiest tutorial of the monkey’s fist i have ever come across.

Very clever!

Great idea💡

Thank you sooooooooo much ♥️

excellent how-to

In several times, the cam don't show your working. But, I thank you.

How much cord was left over? It looks like you didnt need the whole 25 feet...

How much cord for that golf ball?

How much of the 25' was left over? Weaving the left over into the original 6" would make a useful whip if properly spaced, but you need to know how much you've got to work with.

Awesome man

Most of the footage was above the screen so it was hard to see what you were doing. Good concept just need to either bring the camera up or bring your hands in more

Nice work

A weapon😂

it would be good if you kept it in shot

This is most relible defense weapon that i ever have and its really good as a key chain but that can make alot of injuries so dont hit people in head and spine because they can become paralized.... always hit people in legs and arms.... only for self defence.

found a little difficult you had it out of camera view at essential moments

Thanks

Just about to start making them, will it unravel itself over time/use?

What is the diameter of the paracord you are using?

I made my own jig from wood measured everything so I can go from a 1 inch ball to 3 inch ball and mine uses chopsticks lol

By Watching your tutorial video on how to make a monkey fist in a easy way it helps me since I was in grade 12 I learned so fast and it makes me feel like it is just so easy to make a monkey fist or on demonstrating it. Overall it helps me a lot thankyou so much for making tutorial videos it will help not just me but also many people.

Great video thanks, you made a good job of that. 👍👍

Could see most of it, was above the camera. :(

And be sure you dont mess up! Lovely advice

@thebradinator214 thx man I made it with a tennisball for a dog toy you helped me very good

Could you use 2 rubber bands 1 each end

cool vid. Helpful if you keep the work in frame.

What's that metal threader thing?

I nows it's just under 10 mins long, may I ask the actual time it took please?

Keep making videos I love them

can't see what you are doing

Can you do this without a golf ball? Is like my own ball a good replacement? #Sometimesitbelikethat

No se ve nada

Too bad after you removed the pencils you were finishing up the knots off the screen and we could not see it

Where do I purchase the blade?

Does anybody make these and sell these Please comment back and let me know thank you

Great video work , please can you show some safety knots for climbing

Is the nail really important?

Dude. You are out of frame at really important time. It matters where you put that first loop in after taking the pencils out and it is impossible to see where you are doing that.

Next time please keep the ball in the screen

Great vid if we could see it.. nice burp too 🙄

Out of focus a lot!

did you just burp?? classy lol

It’s called a monkey fist, not a monkey ball!

Set up Ricky have a great but it would help greatly if you kept the thing in the camera

How about keeping important instructional bits IN FRAME? I was okay until the last parts. And I’m not a sailor; what’s a FID?

لك الله لايعطيك العافية على هيك تصوير

Holy moly .... how to pause yt with voice?

You kept going out of camera view

Just seeing that table makes me itchy..

Try to keep your work in the camera frame next time. The work piece was out of frame much more than it was in frame.

What the hell...your work is not in 90% of the video. It's out of frame.

It could’ve been a good video if you’d have kept what you were doing on camera

I use a lead ball.

1:54 Thats what She said

bad tutorial imo, or maybe i just am bad at it

Half the video we cannot see. Waste of time.

What's up guys ...... thumbs down sorry

your photographer guy sucks!! all the important moves are out of the camera view

Doesn't even work wasted my time and u dont show enough

He made it way to complicated. You don’t need any of this material.

Why don't you pay attention to what your filming and put the lesson in the center so we can see what the hell you are doing? !!!!!!!

Put you fucking hands in the frame!!!!!

Pointless .... be better off on radio🤣🤣🤣
