Some time back I started making lanyards for the knives I made, that has now grown to all sorts of key fobs, bracelets (the grandkids love them) & neck lanyards. Also, something to do "on the road". Up untill now I imported supplies from the USA but recently found a beaut supplier in Brisbane, Cams Cords. www.camscords.com.au

Walked it in the 90's with (then) teenage son. A truly great experience.
