KnotHead

The more you do this the quicker you get at it. The more your skills become apart of your braiding technique, or your kind of touch with the strings. I don't do a ton of leashes. But the more strands I use that I have not done before the more time I find it takes. But well worth it in the end product for me. B...

It's at your 2 o'clock Rick. B...

That some nice work in latigo. Very nice work. B...

Danke Arno and Gracias Miguel for the kind comments. Arno. It would be a pleasure to share a work bench with you any day mein Freund. I would be honored. Brian...

So here's a lanyard that I had been working on last month. I sent it off to my friend in NJ about a couple of weeks ago. I was just waiting to show this until someone else got there package. The below is a Split T-Braid. This is where I combined 2 braids from the top right and left sides and brought them together in the center top and then braided down the shaft of the lanyard as you see in the photo. Some Fid Work and the knots are 3 pass Pineapples. And the whole picture of the finished work. Best regards, B...

Thanks lilpep. I especially like the star that is formed at the top of that heel(pk) knot. B...

Got those about 2 or 3yrs ago from a marine supply store in Seattle. Can't remember the name of the place right off though. Been too long ago. And thanks to all those who left very kind comments. B...

Steal away me amigo. There have been others to use the same idea before me. LOL... I just did not think of it till last minute for the photo. I had almost forgotten that I had a few of those turn buckles laying around. I saw one of my colleagues photos with one in it of a bell rope with the turn buckle on it and thought that would look kind of neat on that key fob. Then I remembered I had a few of them laying around. LOL... Thanks all for the kind comments. B...

Miguel. Stop with your insults please. I am only going to ask you this so many times dude. So, please stop acting like a damn adolescent. Brian...

Well I said I would post the other Key Fob project I was working on as soon as I got it done. In the following photos is a six strand half round braid pressed out, or blocked into a rectangular shape, and a 4 pass heel knot that started out as a 7part 6bight casa knot. Hope my friend which lives not too far from me likes the new key fob. B...

There are 3 or 4 different colors I love to use. Thanks for the kind comment. I have yet to do the 16 string. I am still playing with the 12 for now. Once I get that one out of my blood per say, I'll move on to the next one. That turn buckle was actually a last minute thought before taking that photo. I thought it might add a little more punch to the shoot. The best thing about that turn buckle is that it is all stainless steel and is a 3/8 inch size. So it was small enough to use with the fob. Gave it some meat actually. LOL B...

Hi Arno. Danke Arno. Ich schätze Ihre Art zu kommentieren. Ich habe ein anderes Schlüsselanhänger ich derzeit arbeite. Ich will, dass auch nach über khww.net sowie hier auf leatherworker.net... Herzliche Grüße B...

This is a key fob for a friend of mine in Florida. It's a 12 strand herringbone coded round braid pressed out to a flat block style. It has an over 2, under 2, over 2 sequence. Johanna... I hope that the storm has blown over... B...

Yes. It will work if you're paying attention to the thong. Just about any casa knot can be tied with lace. I mean just about any. I have only found a few that can not be tied in lace. These were modified turks heads that would not lend itself to the lace as you say. B...

Hi DS. Here's a tutorial one of my members did a while back. T-Shaped Turks Head Tutorial :Hope that this will help. Brian...

It actually looks like it's all one knot Arno. But to be sure you should ask Enrique. Brian...

Hi all. I know that Enrique Capone prepares his own deer rawhide and has made a few projects with it. He's on Face Book here is his profile if you would like to get in touch with him. He's a very nice guy to talk to. He live in Texas. Enrique Capone - FB Profile Link Here a photo of the key fob he made with his deer raw hide. Maybe he might be able to help you out. B...

Same here all. Well I think this one is now closed. So, Mod and Admin can delete when, or at their convenience. As I would say back home. Dern Tooting... I have been buiding KHWW since 2002. I have always tried my best to offer and burn the mid-night oils to help anyone who had an interest. I will continue to do so. Thanks all for the kind comments. Brian...

Okay. So I'll be the first to say it. I apologize Miguel and to all the forum on LW. Regards, B...

Floor still open. Hey was that a fly I heard, or a gnat? Quick someone get the fly swatter out. B...

Now that is childish. So the post goes to show. Just for your info. I wont be tolerating anymore of your insults. I have tried to reason with you. But you wont reason at all. Floor open now. Brian...

Ya know, I don't understand something here Miguel. You act as if I am trying to steal something from you. I have not left your name out of any of this. From day one your name has been taped to this braid. Now all of the sudden you remove photos from your FB account(s) which stand to show that your sequence is what I have been saying since page 2 of this topic. So what's the deal here? Now you don't like me at all because I don't tolerate your insults. Maybe you have some growing up to do. They do have mirrors in Spain, right? Well maybe you should take a good long hard look into one. You might find something there you don't like. It's really too bad you have this kind of arrogance. I like your work and will continue to like your work. But I don't know about you as the artist now. I have a lot of doubt in your ability to even teach as you say you do. I would think your students would be very, very few and far between because of that arrogance. But that's okay. You continue in the path you go. I'll take my path and call it all good. Best regards, Brian...

Putting that in English might be a bit more understandable. Brian...
