You can make cordage as long as you want. You splice the fibers in continuously as you go, so it doesn't end until you want it to. If you have enough time, energy, and material, you could make a single piece of cordage a hundred miles long without tying anything together. I have some extra dogbane stalks- if you need some, let me know.

david w.:
ok i think i understand. Hillbilly that is very nice but I have gotten so much off this site already and dont want to start freeloading besides it would mean more to me if i did everything myself.

daviv not that it cant be done with tree bark , but a bow string would be better if made from plant material. like milkweed or dogbane. peace
