Thank You so much for starting from the beginning and having clear easy instructions! Why do so many start their videos from the middle of the braid? It makes no sense to me.

I watched like 7 different videos on how to do this and your video was by far the easiest to follow. I’m making a diy battle rope with 6 strands of 1/4” polypropylene rope and figured a round braid would be the best way to combined them. Awesome video thank you

No worries, goad it helped! I don't tie much anymore but I noticed over the years people still watch these videos which is why I left them up.

Glad you were able to follow and recreate it!! Thanks!!

Thank you for your demonstration. 👍👍🐎

That is a help, so thank you for taking the time to reply. I don't mind doing a bit of trail and error to test this out.

perfectly easy tutorial, I could do a 6 strand with all same colors after watching this

Love it... Thanks,, Made it easy for me...

Thanks!! I could never quite understand the other videos I watched.

Got it! Thanks

Awesome job. Easy to replicate!

This is really useful. Thank you for posting such a clear video explaining how to do this braid. I have one question though, how do you work out how much cord you need to create say a foot long braid?

Have of the time his hand covers what his doing stupit

What is the best way to finish the braid off at the other end?

I have started over 4 times get about 6 inches that looks but after that it starts looking like crap. I asked the wife what I am doing wrong and after watching me and seeing I was doing ever thing right. She has been sewing, knitting and other crafts for more years than I can count. And her suggest was to braid the three colors separately making 3 separate braids then braid them together that way it would look uniform. So that is what I did to make my motorcycle whip.

What is the best way to finish off the Braid?

Not for nothing but I show you the technique on how to make something, its up to you to be creative and learn how to make projects yourself, BUT if you had looked at my other videos you'll see that i have a couple videos showing you how to end a 4 strand braid into a necklace. you can adapt those techniques into this for the same end result.

what is the diameter of those cords? I'm trying to make a horse lead rope and need something thicker than 5/32" which is all i can find. Do you know anywhere i can get something thicker?

Do you have/ can you make a 4 strand tutorial?

Is the back side braided the same as the front? I did a German version and the back looks braided. When I stopped yours and verified how to tie, it did the same... the front looked spiral, the back looked braided.

hello from spain. i love your video but i was trying to do the same with 8 strands and i can´t!!! the pattern is totally irregular and i dont know how to set the threads. could you please help me. muchas gracias

ooof ima fail this so bad, i was doing an 8 plait and dropped two strands and now im hella confused, all my strands are almost the same colours.

@LadySmith021010 sorry but this is they only way to start it. pause and compare your strands to mine. once you get it once you'll be all set.

i get really confused starting it and it messes up so bad lol i was wondering if there was an easier way to start it

First round -- you move strand 1 through 5 and 6, braided over and under 5 and 4 and then said "strand 3 on the right", but you really moved strand 6 to the right into position 3, correct?

I have one man, click my name to see all my videos.

Sorry dude, that was before I realized I had searched 6 strand instead of 4.

its really trial and error honestly it depends on how tight you really tie it. Around a single strand core I think is a 2 to 1 ratio meaning every 2 feet of cord will tie 1 foot of braid. just gotta test it out yourself i honestly forget. Sorry!

You went WAY too fast at first.

Dude,, colors of numbers, ONE or the other NOT both.Folks might not be using the same My Little Pony colors. Gets pretty damn confusing when you switch back and forth from number sot colors. Had to go through this thing nine friggin times before I got it figured out. One of the most frustrating tutorials I have ever had the misfortune to watch.

I didn't force you to sit and watch this video 9 times, you could of easily went to another video showing how to tie this. I used bright different colors to show technique, others seemed to have gotten it relatively easily. Sorry it didn't work for you.

JJiG Yeah I guess I asked for that. What can I say? It was frustrating because I was trying to do it and only had a certain amount of time to do so. Meh, thanks for the effort of putting it up there just the same.
