Lf paracord scraps

Does anyone have scrap pieces of paracord they feel like parting with? Any color, length etc… Doesn’t really matter for the project. So if you feel like throwing any away for some reason, I can probably put it to use

I think I have a bunch of 225 that I don’t want. It’s pretty thin though.

That’s half of what I need actually (I think, if that’s minicord not familiar enough with it), so that would be great if you don’t need it. Even if it’s not micro/minicord though I’m happy to take it

Paracord is rated by, what i presume to be at least, it’s yield strength. 225 is like a boot lace. 550 is probably what you think of as regular Paracord. 1100 is quite thick.

I can’t remember how much I have, but I bought 3 spools of random colors for cheap, and they’re all ugly. I’ll need to cut off enough to replace my boot laces and you can have the rest.

I’ll be in the interactive room by about 1:30 till 3:00ish. I’ll stick them by the door so I don’t forget them.

If you still have any to get rid of I’ll gladly take it. I don’t know how many pairs of boots you own so you may need it all now haha

I have a about a hundred different paracord survival bracelets that I just needed so I could take pictures of them for ebay. They’re all made out of at least 10’ of (imported) 550 cord. I can bring them in, but you’d have to untie them. I will be back at DMS on Monday. Let me know before then. I have a lot of new stuff if you still need it let me know how much.

Geez, is paracord an addiction lol! I really don’t need a lot which is why I was seeing if anyone kept scraps. I’m trying to make some paracord rings, they have thick cord in the middle and then the micro cord(?) wrapped around the outside. Also I’ve never done any paracord stuff before so if people had stuff they were just gonna trash I figured I’d save it from the landfill a little while longer

I’m not particular on color or anything and I don’t mind having to untie them, 4 or 5 bracelets would be plenty for me. I usually don’t make it to the space on Mondays but lemme know what time and I’ll see if I can, I don’t have a bin or anything unfortunately. How much did you want for the bracelets again, I thought you had said a price but I was half asleep when I saw this earlier so I could be wrong.

I certainly wouldn’t need anything that high grade(it sounds high grade not sure), I didn’t expect so much response I was literally looking for scraps and trash pieces people wouldn’t mind giving away, I’m not well funded to say the least and most of the stuff I was wanting to try required just bits and bobs of paracord.

I’ll just bring in a few hundred feet of cord and find a home for it in CA or my spot. I’ll let you know when it’s in the shop. No charge. If anyone wants the bracelets I can bring them in too. About to move and need to get rid of them.

Wow man thanks a bunch, I really appreciate the generosity, are you sure you don’t want anything for it? Not that I want to talk myself out of free paracord that’s just a bunch to give.

Yup. It’s all leftover that was bought with the profit from my kids ebay business venture last summer.

I put the bracelets on the donate shelf, and there is about 50ft in my storage shelf. I put it there so no one grabbed it before you had a chance to get some.

Cool, I think the 50ft is for me yeah? Thanks a bunch again!

Well rings are hard so I started with this, not really sure how to make the clasp not look like a rats nest and definitely needed to redo some note but meh, first try. Thanks again for the cord
