Thanks, Dave. I purchased 3 different retainers for my sunglasses recently, but none of them fit well, so I was happy to find your video which has great, straightforward instructions. I always have paracord on hand. Never thought about removing the inner strands, but that tip was an "a-ha" moment for me. Cuts down on the weight a bit & made crafting the ends a lot easier for me. I found a spring release cord stopper on an old drawstring bag & put that on to adjust the fit as you mentioned. The only addition I made was adding a 2 high-vis oval fishing floats to the cord before making the looped ends so that if my glasses get yanked off in the water, the floats will keep them from sinking to the bottom of the river. No trip to the store for the entire project.
Recycle, reuse, repurpose 👍. Good for the environment and our wallets. I’m so happy to hear this video helped you out
Rather than spend hundreds on prescription motorcycle goggles, I used your method to keep my prescription sunglasses on my head, now i won't have to worry about shoulder checking and having them blow off. Thanks man!
The instructions were perfect. I was able to make an exact copy of yours, right down adjustable knob in the back in less than 15 minutes using basic tools. Good advice on the add a couple extra inches part. Total material cost = 32 cents.
Thank you so much for the comment. I love hearing that the video was useful. Thank you!
This will come in handy this hunting season! Thanks for the how-to!
I'm super stoked that you enjoyed the video! Thanks Andrew!
Thanks for the Outstanding and Stylish tip here Dave, good job Buddy!
Very nice project, I actually need one for my glasses! Good job on the video!
Thank you! Instructions were on point, this video was super helpful!
Thank you so much makes me really happy to hear that the video was useful
Made mine tonight in preparation for a float trip in a few weeks. Gonna figure out what kind of float I can run the hanging back loop through. Nice tutorial.
Thanks Matt I’m probably going to make an update video to this soon
ty for talking me along
That was very cool - added to favorites
Thanks Dean, I appreciate it!
Cool!.I like it. Thanks brother.
Excellent! Thanks!!!
Thanks for sharing your ingenuity . Very useful ! God bless you more
+arnoldbern thanks so much my friend. That's very nice of you and I wish you many blessings!
Really cool video taught me exactly what I was looking for. Not really a 'bush' person but these tips are good for the urban jungle as well. I didn't use parachute cord but a nice shoelace - turned out awesome. Thanks. Also from the way you describe things, you sound like a good person that cares about what he is explaining, makes listening that much more pleasant.
+Lightnd thanks so much for saying all that. I really appreciate it. I've leaned so much from the RUclips community that I thought I should offer something back. I'm glad you found this useful. Hope you stick around I'm planning on doing more vids this year and improving everything.
I've done many of these in all colors for all my friends. your instructions are simple and easy to follow. thanks
+dmjdpp thank my friend I am very happy to hear this! Please follow my channel and I will post more videos
So helpful, thank you! I'm a writer & not very outdoorsy - I just wanted a quick fix for keeping my "other glasses" around my neck & this has hit the spot.
Thanks for letting me know! I’m glad it was useful to you 👍
Also a writter, also not outdoorsy, but actually watting it for sports
Great video brother know what I am doing to my everyday sunglasses now.
Thanks! It was really fun and if you leave in the inner strands, you'll have a ton of backup cordage.
Ty for the share
Could cover the knots with shrink tubing to seal/protect & secure 'em...
Thank you for the share
What's the initial length of the paracord?
Good video. So I was thinking a few things: So to keep the cinching portion of your strap from interfering with your ear, create two cinching loop instead so that the cord attaches to the arm and holds the cord parallels with the frame. The next thing would be to use some sort of non slip material for those of us who own frames with a narrow end on the arm of the glasses. As an alternative one could actually use some elastic paracord, just some thoughts. Keep making them videos and I'm going to see what else you're doing on your channel..
Great ideas! I’m going to make an update to this video soon and I’ll add those great ideas
@@BushcraftDave That would be sweet if you could come up with something,, my idea started and ended with Gorilla tape, haha!
Great video! Want to make for my hubby. One question, what's the compression lock for? Adjusting length?
Hello Denise, thank you for commenting I love interacting with like minded people. I use the compression lock to shorten the length so that it fix the sunglasses to my head, kinda like googles- so they fly away into the ocean like what happened to a friend of mine lol 😂
Súper!!! Muchas gracias!!! Thanks a lot!!! Goood video 👍👍👍😊
I’m so happy it’s useful thank you for comment. I’ll be making another video on this soon. Please subscribe and watch when it comes out thank you
Thanks a lot
Thanks for taking the time to comment 👍
Could you clean it up with heat shrink tubing over the end that holds the glasses.
I’ve seen people do that. I’d be careful though, I haven’t used shrink tubes and I’m afraid the paracord might get damaged? But I’m sure if you’re careful you can do it
Perfekt
why not just mark the side you cant pull on? pull on the side that is not marked?
man stop with that noob self esteem, u did it and thats what matters!
a new subscriber and keep going 🍹🍹
I appreciate that! I’m working on that and I’ll do better 👍👊
The word you are looking for is "Toggle" !
Thanks brother! Damn little things are very useful.
Bushcraft Dave lol ! Best Wishes from Bonnie Scotland !
Very strange video. It looks like you are talking and making hand motions trying to explain something but all I hear is music.
To much... Aggrivation and time can buy one on E Bay for apx $5,00 Bucks plus Free shp etc.
That’s a fair analysis. Some people like doing these projects for fun and they have paracord lying around. Plus if you’re in a situation where you need cordage, it’s there. If you use survival cord w/ a metal wire for traps you’ll have lots of options on top of the inner strands. Thanks for your input 👍
Don't listen to him! I'm a retired military wife whose husband gave her a HUGE amount of paracord! Bring on the ideas! New subscriber!!
You’re awesome Denise! Thank you very much. Lots of stuff on eBay are made overseas. Why not buy American made paracord and make it yourself
That would be 10 extra inches on both ends. I’m done watching your video.
