Placing the Beads on a Razor Blade Bracelet

Video Transcript

"JASON HARRIS: Hi, I'm Jason with ExpertVillage.com. And today we're making a bracelet out of wire and coaxial cable with a razorblade with fake blood on it as a charm. So we're ready to start tying knots to keep everything in place. The first thing that we're going to do is take one of the beads. We're going to put it on and we're going to bring it down--we're going to actually fold this in half so that we know we're center of the charm is. So center would be right here. That's where we want the razorblade to sit is in the center. So off of center, I'm going to make another mark and I'm going to use these marks to tie on my beads. This is center where my bead sets in and that is the length of that bead. I want a knot on each side, so I'm going to put--the beginning knot is going to be on this side. That's where the first knot will go, and I'll actually move my bead over, make another mark where it ends and then just on that side make another knot where my--or mark where my knots will be. It means I have a knot here and a knot here and my bead will rest in the center, and it will be off center. This will be left open for the razorblade. So if you can visualize that, we're going to do that on both sides. So this will take two knots on each side, and we're going to tie one at a time and keep measuring so that we don't get a bead go over here and another one go over here. Everything is all center. So make your marks and then put your bead back into center, and I will show you how to start tying knots after that."
