KnotHead Report post Posted October 12, 2010 Here is key fob I made for a buddy of mine that I been knowin for about 20yrs now. On the top you'll find a 3pass type and on the bottom you'll find a 4pass. This one is a multi-pass type 1 Pineapple Knot shaped and formed around 2 wood beads and in the center of the beads is a spanish ring knot to fill in the gap and give the pineapple something in the center to rest on. Kangaroo Hide. Not one of my best fobs, I know. But this was my first time messin with the multi-pass type 1 PK. I do better next time. ehehe... Brian...

8thsinner Report post Posted October 12, 2010 I like it. I am fairly sure you can do better with it, but the shape and size to me is something I would look for when purchasing, or making my own, Big enough to grip easy, slim enough to not stick out of the pocket too much and a nice shape to act as a axial point if you need to swing your keys hard and fast. (at flies) lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KnotHead Report post Posted October 12, 2010 I know now that I will need extra lace for the bottom part of the fob. I needed enough lace to go the 5th pass because the bottom bights slipped down when tightening it. When they slipped down it opened up some more room for another pass. I did not guess right on the length of the lace for that particular bead. Sucks sometimes. But that's braiding. LOL... Next one I make be for me... I never seem to have enough time to make me a fob it would seem. LOL... Thanks for the kind comments. Brian.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
