after making about a dozen now, they're turning out really good.

I've got some paracord ordered. If you have a color in mind, let me know and I'll send you one....free of charge

I've ordered from The Lanyard Zone 7 or 8 times now. Never had a problem. Sounds to me like you chose the free shipping, which they state takes 11 or 12 days. I've always paid the 10 dollars and gotten the updated shipping (5-6 days).

If you don't see them soon, then email Scott there and ask him for a status update. I wouldn't worry about being ripped off, they are a reputable company. If for any reason they don't arrive at all, I'm sure Scott will make it right.

Best, Les.

So I ordered some skull beads from The Lanyard Zone that were shipped 12 days ago, and still no sign of them. When I ordered them, I didn't know they were in Canada and I've never ordered from them before. Is it me, or is this a really long time? Can customs be holding beads for that long, or what?

those kind of things work great for me: easy to grab, short enought and nice enought for my taste:

Great picture, Pascal! I hope there's nothing alive in that shell.

I've been in touch with Scott since the day I ordered, since they didn't have some of the things I wanted in stock. I sent him a message yesterday, asking whether this amount of time is usual. He replied that he actually shipped my order 5 days after he said he would. I had assumed he shipped it on the day he mentioned in the original email. He says they're very busy there.

The folks at EDCForums have quite a few ideas (and pictures of work):

I got a few Chris Reeve style that are brand new. I will sell for $5 plus a $1 to ship.

I've purchased a couple from http://www.wilsontactical.com/

I'll probably give making my own a shot next time. An eagle scout should be able to tie some basic knots.

Few years ago there were a bunch of aftermarket attachments made specifically for 94x series to provide a hole for a lanyard. I haven't seen those for a while now.
