    That's also true but the poster asked
    Hi there,
    gall, could you put up a link to the making of these. I'd be very interested in having one, as I have the same size torch.

    You may note in my post I stated it was an alternative how to make guide.
    I never stated it was how you had made your exact one.

    Sorry I didn't think you were just posting random thoughts and obscure references that other people might not get.

    But don't worry I won't reply in any of your threads again.

    Hi Guys
    and no offence taken and I'm not looking to argue about how massive my Paracord Cock is.
    I appreciate all that's being said here, I really do. Mods you know me or know what I have going on, we have talked about it in the past and I respect the rules of Boards and am conscious of not threading/ stepping over them, But you can see where I'm coming from. Again I'm not looking to argue with anybody and I hope this diffuses things on my behalf.

    I was asked by a friend of mine to put these together he is with the Irish defence forces, the problem they have is the zipper pulls on their vest do not last he has used my design for a few months now and they have passed all field tests.

    Made from a little over 100' of 550 paracord in the Wexford colours, this lead is 4.5' long.

    The white lead was presented to the Irish Defence Forces mascot, an Irish wolf Hound, to be worn on Parade, quite proud of that.

    I start with a couple stitches to make sure the inner strands are tight. then sit the compass in between the two.
    It's tight enough to hold it in place and the more stitches I do the tighter it get and holds it in. When I have it finished I put a tiny drop of clear glue on the back of the compass where it meets the cord.
    That way it's enough to secure it so it won't pop out from general wear and tear and motion when on the wrist but if you need to unravel it a little tug will pull the compass from the cord when undone.

    A while ago I approached the Irish Defence Forces about supplying their mascot with a Collar and Lead. I had seen some pictures of their mascot and the leads, collars were not in my humble opinion fit for the Parade ground. They accepted my offer. Monday they sent me this picture of their mascot (left) with one of my collars and leads. The Wolf Hound on the right is the mascot of the Royal Irish (british Army Unit). This week has been a very good week for me.
