That is so straight.
Keep at it. The destination will be well worth the journey.

This night i got it to 24plat. It is reeally slim whip.
There is few gaps where i have added strand but i think good rolling will take care of that.
I unplaited it a little bit to make colours stay on same side. It might be easier to do fancy plait in the handle that way.

Very cool Jyri! Looking great so far. Very straight!

Thanks!
While i was waiting for kids to fall asleep i had time to play with face plat.
Is there anything wrong with this desing? I have never really used face plat so i have no idea..

It looks like fun.
I have found that anything is possible until it's not.

Oh my, Jyri! That would look fantastic.

Jyri, how long is the handle? I have a 30-plt 10.5" handle covered in 275 and there are at least 75 passes from heel to transition. I suspect your pattern may fall rather short.

Jyri, that handle design looks amazing!
In terms of the number of passes, for a 10in handle, with 2mm paracord (assuming a perfect 45 degree angle of plaiting) I believe you need around 90 passes (Yes, I even have calculations for this kind of stuff hahaha)
You seem to have ~75 passes on this pattern, so even if you don't fully get to the end, you could easily extend it a bit more with a repetitive pattern (like solid bars) ^_^

Thanks!
I was making it with my phone so i lefted it short. I have to make better one with computer and print it.
Sir Roger i havent measured it yet.

Jyri - that is some fancy plaiting. I have yet to delve into the world of intricate handles, so I'm envious of your skill. However, am I reading that correctly? 16 total strands?
