Stormdrane's Blog: A couple more...
I don’t know how to contact you or to respond to your YouTube video so I hope I did this correctly.
I am from a little place you might have heard of called Ola. I now reside in Tampa Florida. I find it festinating that you would live in McDonough Georgia! I’m so home sick I could eat dirt. LOL
In your video I missed how you threaded that needle onto the cord. What did you use and how did you manage it?
I belong to a rope making group on the Web and I’ve made a nice machine out of wood that turns out some beautiful rope and cord. I am trying to teach myself how to make my own handmade nets not but I am having great difficulty with it. Also I seen an old Flipper movie where bud made a fish trap using palmetto stocks and I can’t seem to manage that either. Maybe you could help?
Great video you made to be sure! Very clear and easy to understand and wonderful photography absolutely to be sure! You have a great talent and you use it well.

McDonough, Henry County, is a nice place, steadily growing.
The needle I used with the paracord turks head lanyard, is made by Perma-Lok and has threads in the end that grip the cord as you 'screw' it on.
I think I've seen the 'Flipper' episode with the fish trap, but it's been so long I don't recall it. I know I've seen similar woven fish traps made on television before. A little googling brought up a few examples and a little history that they've likely been used for thousands of years. I didn't see one for palmetto stocks or palm fronds, but I imagine there's something on them somewhere online or in a book...
