awesome stuff.

I wrapped my hunting knife with paracord a couple weeks ago and kept the line as straight as I could. That steering wheel looks badass though! Even better part is you'll always have 550 cord if ya need it

Looks good,,, there is another thread on this, and they did the door handles and grab bars which look really good as well. I threw out the ideal of a roll cage done with paracord, I would really like to see that.

Yea the other steering wheel I saw on here is what gave me the idea. they just wrapped the cord around it though I believe...not 100% sure though, I really like the look of cobra knot so that was why I went that way...takes much longer but worth it I think. a Roll cage would be pretty badass...cant imagine how hard though, this was 100 feet of cord and that was a PIA. have to spool both sides up so that it doesnt get tangled up.

LOL a Roll Cage could take a full weekend but would be a big pain.

I saw somewhere a guy that did grab handles in a king cobra knot which was pretty awesome but I wonder if it actually holds up or stretches a little. I wouldnt think it would stretch but apparently it does. any pictures or experience with this?
