PRO - Paracord Bracelet Kit and Jig | Easily Make Paracord Bracelets from 4" to Over 13" | Adjustable Steel Frame Made in The USA | Includes Free Paracord & Buckles

I was hesitant to invest in a jig until I determined if paracord bracelets and pet collars will sell in my Etsy store and at local shows. But in order to make a good product to sell, I saw the value in a jig. Based on all 5-star rating, I bought this one. I AM NOT disappointed. It's super sturdy, will last forever, easy to use, and I like the larger size which can accommodate pet collars. The wing nut stays in place. The design to hold the bracelet is interesting... you will need an extra identical buckle to clip onto yours to loop into the jig. The sizing on the jig is handy. I know where to set it to get a consistent length bracelet. The only problem is that I can make bracelets really fast, and had to buy more paracord. It's a slippery slope, but I know I need a small investment to introduce a new quality product to my business. I'd definitely recommend spending the extra money and buy this jig. You won't ever have to buy another one, unless all your kids want one.Update - I found that to get a consistent size bracelet (with simple square knots), my bracelet length is about 1" larger than the wrist size. The thickness of the knots takes up the extra inch. On this jig with most smaller buckles, I set the length to exactly the length of the bracelet. For example, for a 7" wrist... I make my bracelet 8" long. I set the jig measurement to 8". Apparently the jig takes into consideration the extra length of buckles used to attach bracelet. I created a measuring device out of cardstock that rolls up and the bracelets fit around it. It has marks at the 1/2" spaces so I know what wrist size each bracelet fits. If it's exactly on the inch mark, I list my bracelets as a close fit. If it's just beyond it (because I tried a different knot), I list bracelet as a loose fit. For resale, I make it exactly on the inch mark and instruct customers to order up if they're in-between.

I stumbled upon paracord bracelets when looking for a YouTube tutorial on macramé bracelets as a relaxing activity. (An attempt at learning how to knit was a disaster even after taking instruction. Way too stressful.) The videos showing the use of paracord were intriguing. A few packages of cords and some buckles were purchased at Michael's to try it out. The couple of initial attempts were encouraging but using a clipboard to hold the cords in place was rather clumsy. The jig solved that problem and made the process go smoother and faster. The four bracelets pictured (two in cobra and two in fishtail) were completed using the jig in less than 90 minutes. For making bracelets without a buckle, a binder clip can be used to hold the cord in place at the desired length.The jig sits firmly on the work surface, was so simple to put together, is well made of hard metal and the measurement markings are helpful. The printed instructions are okay, but I found that using a YouTube tutorial about the jig was very useful. The video made clear how to set up the jig using the male/female ends of a buckle into which the bracelet is fitted as you weave. The printed instructions didn't make that understandable at all; at least not to me. So far, I've used paracord 550 and a smaller nylon cord (as shown in the pictures) on the jig. The jig is really great when using a smaller nylon cord since the cord is held tightly and doesn't flop around as it did when I was using a clipboard. And the price is reasonable. It comes with some hanks of cord and several buckles of different colors. Now that I've started with the jig, I've also ordered several hundred feet of 550 in different colors and designs. Even thinking of taking a vendor table at the next local craft fair.

The media could not be loaded. Missing the pamphlet with bracelet weaving instructions. I’m questioning where the measuring sticker was placed. Had to search for YouTube videos to understand how to get started. Fun activity once started. Will need to buy more paracord because I measured the wrist size wrong. Sturdy jig overall.
