About Paracord Helper

Just input the wrist size for the bracelet you want to make, press "Calculate", and this app will tell you everything you need to know!
____________________________

-The "Material Cost" field is calculated by adding the average cost of buckles, $0.51 for bracelets/$0.61 for 4 Strand Round Braid or $1.10 for LightBanz bracelets + cost of cord used, usually about $0.10/ft.

-For bracelets, the "Cost" field is calculated by adding the Material Cost + Time To Make the bracelet (I estimated average hourly working rate at $10.00/hour, you can pay yourself more or less by changing the values higher or lower in either the "Charged Hourly Rate" or "Time To Make" box.)

-Wholesale price is calculated by marking up the Cost by 25%.

-Retail price is calculated by marking up the Wholesale price by another 25%.

-LightBanz set to 8 inches, since most LightBanz are no longer than that. Wrist size set to 7 by default to accommodate 1 inch takeup from paracord. Wrist size may be adjusted for smaller wrists if you choose to alter LightBanz bracelet.

*I used my callipers to measure the width and thickness on all my bracelets, but I use 5/8 buckles and double my core strands, so if you use smaller buckles or only use 2 strand cores, you might be able to knock off 1-2 feet from the "Total Cord Used" field, but just be careful. The "Total Cord Used" field is meant to be a estimated guide as to how much cord is in the finished bracelet, not exactly how much cord you'll need from start to finish.

It gives you help with the measurements and then after that it's links to YouTube tutorials. It's OK. It is a help with the calculator, but after that it's bit poor. You can't watch the videos in full screen or in landscape mode. So it's quite hard t see what's happening in the tutorials. As it's free it's OK. I'm just glad I didn't pay for it. Needs some tweaking to the layout.

I was hoping to find length calculations for 4, 6, and 8 strand flat braid designs, as I'm making longer belts and straps and don't need the chunky styles. Please consider adding some. Thanks!

This is a really good app for those just starting in paracording..Easy to use app, really like the calculation feature. Makes it easy to figure out the length needed to make a bracelet. Really helpful use it..it's worth the download.

I don't intend to use this app for making bracelets. The main reason was for making dog leashes and lead ropes for horses. This app has worked perfectly and is so simple to use. Michael, you are a genius, thank you so much for this top notch app.

I actually make bracelets, belts, lanyards, key fobs, pouches, zipper pulls, etc. And the biggest issue for me was always getting the right amount of cord and then deciding the best sale prices.......not anymore!
