I'm tellin' you. This guy is a God in the braiding world. I've done braiding for a while now and there are LOTS of folks I consider good that turn to him. And it's only a hobby for him! Just for fun and doesn't mind helping other folks as long as they've read his instructions first.

Well, the belt is done. I was able to incorporate two lengths of brass wire and three fishing hooks with leaders into the weave and I used a carabiner for a buckle. I took a bunch of pictures so I'll try to put together a tutorial over the next couple of days. I may try and use the instructables page so I don't burn Chris's bandwidth.
My impression is if you want to carry a lot of paracord then this isn't a bad idea. It's a bit cumbersome in making because of the amount of cord you have to use and you sort of feel like a spider starting out (it's a visual thing. cord wrapped around you, never mind). If you already carry what you need or if 550 cord isn't a concern for you then the belt warman posted above might also be a good idea.
Warman - Mea Culpa!

Uh, FVR, is it just me or is that fancy shootin' iron on there bass ackwards?

Rick, Rick, Rick, it's a Slim Jim cross draw. Comes out faster and with less movement that way.

Just do'n my own thing. Never been much for following what others do, like to find what works for me.
