As a woodworker wannabe I just drilled holes into a piece of scrap wood and nailed in four long nails. It works great. And all of that because of you and your tutorials. Thank you, my cats are happy🤣
Thanks for posting this! I used 4, 6” lengths of a 1/4” dowel I had, and just drilled 4 holes in a square piece of scrap 1x4. Works great. Thanks again!
It never occurred to me to use this for self defense until I saw it in another video. I have several trees to take down and thought to use this on a short rope connected to a carabiner and then a longer rope to throw the end of the rope over a branch before tying the long rope off to an upper branch with a double dragon knot and then hooking to my truck for the pull. Today is the first time I saw either knot explained.
I gotta tell you- I LOVE all of your videos and have watched almost all of them... Multiple times...
I also LOVE your humor 🙂A couple little jokes tossed in here n there make an already useful DIY video even more enjoyable to watch 🙂
Thank you!
Thanks for the diy. Plenty of material around the house for the jig. 👍
Thank you for showing this. As a 16 year old girl i made this but smaller for my Keychain and i had to use it twice already. ur a hero in my eyes.
Just starting to play with Paracord and I really appreciate your information.
Thanks,
Greg Pynes
Actually lost my monkey jig and legit would have never thought of this! Great timing Tim 👌🏽
Hello, excellent tutorial on how to proceed to build yourself a frame for the monkey fist, but you try with a large marble, but if I want to do it with a smaller marble, should I change the cardboard with and make new holes?
made one of these with perspex and long bolts 🙂
Been tieing these since I was a Scout in the 70's. It's a good technique to teach young people.
These things for whatever reason are super addicting to make or maybe its just me. I have 2 that have over 100ft of paracord in them that ive unwound and rewound multiple times. All by hand and jerry rigged pens for a jig. Wish i had seen this video back then haha
Very useful, thank you for the tutorial
Question, where do you get your steel ball bearings at?
Thanks. Good idea ill try it
I just made it and its very use full . Thanks Tim it means a lot
I tried a golf ball monkey fist in my fingers last night - messy 😂
This should help 👍🏻🙂
I have not made those since the early 90s on boats in Alaska . I still have some triples on keychains and one decent weighted size .
Just so you know this video was very very helpful thank you a lot
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the great idea👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I actually made one of these many years ago! I actually saw it in RUclips ads. And I was like wtf!?? I invented that thing! Well it turns out it already existed
Like the intro music it’s the same intro that Mike uses on his Channel “That Chapter”, he has an awesome True Crime Channel.
Its really awesome content creator 👍👍👍.. like it ✌️🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🙏🙏
Can't figure out why none of the paracord videos do not want to tell us what the minimum amount paracord is required for each task
I don't know about other channels, but for my videos, I almost always have the amounts of paracord used for each project, usually listed on screen within the first 30 seconds of the video. This particular video didn't have any measurements because the whole point of the video was to show you how to make a DIY jig with materials around the house. If you're looking for specific amounts needed for monkey's fists, I have a video about that here: ruclips.net/video/fRok5Y1LgqA/видео.html. I hope that helps!
Thank you for sharing this content! I was actually thinking of making a Monkey Fist this weekend using a golf ball and now I can make a template to help ease the frustration. - Ha! I've been making keychains and that skull bead bracelet these past two weeks - using your tutorials on snake knots, cobra knots and globe knots. Even made a couple of the Double-DNA ones. This will help prevent monotony and keep me interested in pursuing this therapeutic hobby! 👊
Simplest and the best tutorial 👍💯
Thank you for tutorial. I will use monkey fist knot for squre neodium magnet (magnet fishing) 😂..
it's so pretty!
I want 15
I have absolutely no idea how I ended up here, but I'm happy for it all the same.
Me too
Who doesn't love balls? Am i right
What is a nice size steel ball? 1 inch or less?
It's one of those things that are so simple I never would've thought of, but works brilliantly.
You are a blessing. 🙏
De todos los videos que vi fue el único que entendí!!!muchas Gracias!!!
With only making a few of these here and there, I could never justify buying a jig. So, this is perfect. Thanks! "Hehe boi!" (LOL)
You're welcome! 👩🏾🍳LOL
Sweet. Great way to make the jig. Would not have considered this at all.
Muy buen invento gracias es la más facil
About how long of a piece should it be lengthwise ? Need a handle or place to hold/swing it, right
Thank you so much easier🤗👌
Thank you. i gotta do this
When I wanted one, I just pounded 4 nails into a flat piece of plywood
Awesome idea thanks 😊
Never heard of them , what are they for and what is it that you put in the middle ? It was very interesting to watch . Thank you !
You put a steel ball in the middle, grab the handle, and bash the head in of someone who wants smoke w you
Felicidades es muchacho eso es 💡 ideal
New sub here. Nice video. Clear and easy to follow. Thanks.
do you have a cheap fast solution for the needle thing you have?
I sure do, you can actually make a lacing needle out of the paracord itself, I have a video on that here: ruclips.net/video/ZLftnNweiFE/видео.htmlsi=hGkDxrxsZIisX2bN
Thanks! Great video!!
You're welcome and thank you!
So clever!!!
Omg that is grate thanks
Thank you so much for this! I tried making a monkey fist without a jig and it was a disaster.
Merci pour votre vidéo j'adore
You must be the right person to ask..
I want to make a bracelet (in leather) attached with pearls. When I tie, I have 4 threads at the end, but I really want a monkey hand at the end. (Used as a "button" to close the bracelet when I start with a "ring")
Can it be done at all?
I have tried to make the monkey hand with 2 cords, it goes ok, but the last tight is difficult as it is thin leather cord and it should sit close to the tied end. But thinking it can be done with patience 🧘🏼♀️😅
However, I still do not know what to do with the last 2 strings 🤷🏼♀️
Do you have a suggestion?
I can not immediately see you have made a video, but maybe because you can not 🤔🤔
I hope you understand my question 🤞🏻 My English is not super, and Google translate as well 😉
What is that needle you use to feed thecord with?
It’s called a fid, it has a threaded hole in the end so you can kinda screw the end of a paracord into it and use it to get in tight spots. Really helpful for the more intricate weaves, and super cheap to buy. Hope that helps!
What are they for?
I made one with macrame sticks and a resin base
Fantastic content (as always). Are there any wristband designs that could incorporate an NFC tag? Would be an interesting challenge.
how do calculate the length of paracord to use for the monkey fist?
I have a video explaining that here: ruclips.net/video/fRok5Y1LgqA/видео.html
Comment vous avez fait l'aiguille ?
Excellent video thank you. Sadly monkey fists are illegal in the nanny state Britain.
omg thats u so much for this video
the weavers of eternity paracord is basicaly a weaving type clone of north of the border
so what can. I use for theifdle if I don't want a super heavy monkey fist, what it I have a bouncy ball or even a golf ball can. I use those as a center for the monkey fist
Yes, you can use just about any round object for the core.
Magnifique mais j.aimerai bien trouver une aiguille avec l’embout pour enfiler le cordon dites moi ou je pourrais en trouver merci beaucoup
I made my first monkey fist jig from scrap wood, and chop stix
A Cheap but better alternative to make the gig would be to use aluminum knitting needles and balsa wood.
Btw keep up the good work
Will do, thanks!
Thx for the reply
Cuáles son las medidas para colocar los palitos
Saw this video and thought it was easy enough
Bought myself 2 pieces of 3 meter cord and found a small soft ball I had in a drawer
Turns out the ball was in fact not small . and 3 meters was not enough
also the cord was differesnt diameter ( WTF ) . and plot twist 6 meters was still not enough
Had to find another piece to make it work , also diferent diameter
And now I have a ball wrapped in cord hanging from a bookshelf and it honestly looks decent
Spent 3 hours on this , would do it again
Yeah where do you buy the steel ball for the monkey fest what stores
My name is Raymond Martin trying to find out where I can get the fuel ball for a Marquita where I could get them or purchase them could you get them from a place called The hobby lobby
I have one from the thirtys used by brutal cops. The leather fist with a woven handle.
Epoxy can go a long way too
I have a free jig: My hands...
Magnífica 💡
Whey bwaay!😂
Puede ser del tamaño que tu quieras no sólo el de los dedos
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for this video. I just shared it on Pinterest. And subscribed as well. I'm looking forward to checking out what else you have on your channel. ❤️
I've always just used my hands
I have heard that these knots ar illegal if they have a heavy core.
The knot itself isn't illegal, it's the weight inside of the knot. It is considered a weapon in most states in the category of "slung shot"
@kamonharrell3277 But the inside can't be seen by the cop so he/she has to "assume" that it is loaded. Therefore you are detained and harrassed.
@@Rick-if5zb well of course your not allowed to have anything to protect yourself , that`s only for the powers that be. us peasants are not to be trusted with anything that might be a weapon
@@ars5029 And exactly why is that? In America, voting for people who want to take your ability to protect yourself is about as stupid as you can get.
the ONLY purpose for the monkeys fist is you know you trying to pick a fight against someone thats unarmed. nobody capable is gonna be afraid of that
Say that again after seeing one made from either a 4 oz lead weight or a pool ball core. 🤣🤣
Hey, why is it called 'Monkeys Fist / Monkey's Ball'? I'd call it 'Dawid's Sling'
A davids sling (histroically called a Balaeric Sling) is used to throw a rock. Not hold a steel ball..
Before I bought a real MF Jig, I made one out of a styrofoam block and pencils… it worked, but nothing works as well as the real thing (in this case anyway!)
around 2:10, where you cut-pasted, NO! NO! NO! Please don't do this -- impossible to see what you're doing.
After the first set of wraps, the cord turns 90 degrees and starts wrapping perpendicular to the first set of wraps. If you pause at 2:13 you can see the path of the cord. I hope that helps!
i dont get the 3rd pass. tried it 7 times. it doesnt go as planned. in your first video, u cut out the beginning of the 3rd pass. in this, i cannot see. im getting very frustrated. i cannot make this damn monkey fist.
I made one from a small box and throw away chopsticks
🖖 👍
Disney commercial. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 NO.
💕👌🔥👍
Even on slow-motion this guy is still to fast to keep up with
🙋🙋
🐉🐺🐉🇺🇲🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🇺🇲
👍🇦🇷🇦🇷
as a responsible person you would have mentioned that a monkeyfist with steelball core is illegal in several countries, because it is a deadly weapon, but who cares its just about being responsible, and who on youtube is ? yolo huh ?
Bruh, you stole this idea from The Bradinator
I had to look that person up because I'm not familiar with them, but my original video using this method pre-dates his video. I first uploaded a video using this method 6 years ago, The Bradinator uploaded his 4 years ago. My original video is here: ruclips.net/video/K64ltiUxvd8/видео.html
