Bionic Hermit Crab ?

A work in progress! Not much to say about this that the picture doesn't tell ! 


If Batman made dog leashes!

Specially made for Mack. Made from a triple braid of 550lb black paracord! App 7' long. (Plenty of room to romp around) There's a secondary handle for added control, and when used in conjunction with the smaller carabiner on the handle the length of the leash can be doubled down to shorten up the leash for crossing streets and such) a larger mountain climbing grade carabiner was used for the main attachment point to his collar! 
I love how this came out!

Laguna's Leashes !


Hopefully this pic (digitally cleaned up ) will be my new business cards for my paracord creations. If not it'll just be a cool picture 




Bigger, Badder Angler Fish!

Brutus the new & improved Bigger, Bladder Angler Fish!
(The original is one of my early posts) 
This big guy about the size of a football has an replaceable l.e.d!
blue & green wires were spun through the usual steel stuff to give it a more aquatic feeling
wire mesh for the fins. 
I really love how this piece came out. 
Primarily a table top / shelf sculpture, but could be fitted to hang on a wall !

A paracord leash for a Service Dog in training!

I love how this came out! 
It's for my co-worker Michelle, and her adorable dog Junior! 
 6, 16' pieces of 550lb paracord were used, with a 170lb. clasp. 
Triple dual strand flat braided over the entire length. 
A second handle was added down by the clasp for added control.
Both handles have a traditional cobra stitch cuz well it looks cool,
 and for added cushion.
All and All this is best leash I've made!
(second only to the one I made for Kelly & Mack )

Cactus ! ! !

I really like how this piece turned out! 
It really works well with the l.e.d's! Casts some great shadows
Several different types of gauges of wire were used and then twisted together to give the piece some dimension. Completed with a spool base, which holds the l.e.d quite nicely
