I got some paracords from Walmart and put them on my mechs. I put a lanyard on two of them just in case Zombies are chasing me and I don't want to drop my PV. The other mod I used a caribiner.

Walmart sells paracord? As in 550? I buy my paracord at surplus stores, the Navy Exchange, and once from ebay. I haven't touched the spools since I completed all of my project. What knot or style did you use to wrap what looks like a chi-you? The red/black one. Thanks for the thread. I need to check up on stormdrane and TIAT so I can pick up the hobby again. I've been out of it for the past 2 years.

Just did a quick google-fu and found this: Wal-Mart Paracord!! - YouTube
Video shows it can only support 110 lbs.

I'll try making a sleeve/pouch instead of a wrap since I keep my mods in my pants pockets at times. Then I'll attach the pouch to my bag. Something similar to this:

Yes sir, it's located in the Hardware isle. The black is 550 the other two I'm not sure but felt just like the 550 but was half the price. I think it was $2 and change. I used a simple wrap nothing special. The pattern on the paracord gives it that look. The zombie colored one is the exception. I will locate the youtube video on that one. I think I searched "Paracord Flashlight Wrap".

I just made a paracord bracelet so I think I can attempt this. I'm still searching for the exact how-to but I stumbled upon a utility pouch one that might work for me.
