You're comment made look up the sheath strentgh of the paracord. For 550, the strength is 305 lbs (http://blog.survival-pax.com/2010/11...y-cordage.html)

So there really is no reason to leave the weedwacker line all the way thru. I will make some of these when I get home after work and will post an update sometime later.
