Looks good GT. The shrink wrap over the knot makes a nice finishing touch.
I continued to experiment too. I doubled up the 1.7mm wacko-plastic for a more firm coil. I didn't know what length to make them, so I rounded off to 100" of paracord, allowing 9" on each end for the loop. That put the plastic at 82" ... which I made 83" to allow some final adjustment before tying the second end loop. I fastened both ends to a dowel with zip ties and reversed the twist when it came out of the ice bath for a tighter coil. Finished coil came out to 6".
I like it!
