Easy layers attachment

I always thought ranger beads were the distance beads the US Military used per 5/km traveled in land navigation. Learn something new every day.
 
So the bead is not a bead at all then? Its a knot? That's cool.
 
Yes...it's a knot made.of Paracord that slides up and down a length of Paracord....if u get the "bead tied tight when u slide it and load it the knot grabs pretty good and hold in place. I haven't had anything work loose
 
This could be a decent stick attaching method too, as long as the loop is big enough to pass the standoff/steps through before cinching down. cheaper than the voile straps I have, stay attached so can't get dropped, and no metal buckles. I like.
 
U need to get the knot tight as u can....like 1 end was in the vice and the other end I got pliers so start out with way too much rope so at the end u can really get a good grip

Just be careful....was stretching spectra d loop cord in a vise using a screwdriver that had the cord wrapped....got on the edge of the vise too much and cut the cord....I flew backward and hit a wall of tools!
