Paracord Lanyard

I made this lanyard for my wife's ID badge at work.  I got the idea from Stormdrane's Blog on how to make a gaucho knot paracord lanyard.  Here is his video on how to tie gaucho knot.  Here is the link on how to make the gaucho beads.  For the center of the beads I found some metal sleeves at the local hardware store.  They are 5mm x 10mm.  I also picked up some 6mm x 10mm that work good too, just a little bigger of a bead.  I put some fake nail glue on the sleeves to keep the knots in place, and also coated the knots with the same stuff.  Seemed to work pretty good.  I used this site for the wall sinnet.  The safety breakaway was purchased off Ebay.
