HOW TO - Make a Rope RugI thought it would be cool to make one of these out of paracord. It could be used as emergency cordage, and you could use it as a rug at your campsite or something. ![[Linked Image from makezine.com]](http://www.makezine.com/blog/263574.jpg) ![[Linked Image from makezine.com]](http://www.makezine.com/blog/263569.jpg)

That seems way to time consuming for me, but thanks

Yeah, I don't think I'd have the patience for it either. But it looks cool.

I thought it's too bad there isn't a company selling them made in China or somewhere out of paracord. Would be a great duel use item and compact way to carry emergency cord.

Nepal would be a good place to have them made. I should ask Yangdu about it.

Thats some pretty thick rope. You might as well make it out of the beard hair that you'd grow while trying to make it out of paracord <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Really cool idea though Andy. You could definately use one made of paracord as some shade netting if you were somewhere other than the woods.
I'll get back to you in a few months and see how its coming along!! You're the man.
