I've seen stuff on coiling but nothing on braiding other than a blurb or two.
Does anyone know where I can find a video or something of a "how to" braid an extension cord?opera mobileI found this on a discussion board......
the "braid" if its what i think it is, was always called a carpenters knot by my dad, think its also called a daisy chain. to do it, put the male and female end together and work your way down to the middle of the cord. tie an overhand knot in that, not real tight though. this is where it get hard to explain. lay it on the ground so that the middle of the cord is on the left. take the part that sticks out to the right and "push" it towards the left to "loosen" the knot. grab the part that slid out and hold it in the left hand. then grab a piece thats the the right of the knot and pull it thru the loop in the left hand. hold the new loop in the left hand and pull another piece from the right thru that. continue on til you get to the end. once to the end, you can use the plugs to keep it from coming loose. its easier than it sounds once you get it, you can do a hundred foot cord in under a minute. to untie it play with the end with the plugs, should be able to pull on it and it will almost disentigrate.
