I did mine in the left over para cord I had from wrapping my steering wheel. Thanks for the idea.

Just tuck the loose end into the body. I use a needle nose plier to make it easier

Interesting idea. You'd always have cordage in case of an emergency..

That's what I do.. use a pair of forceps to pull the loose ends down into the body, cut them close and they disappear into the body.

I didn't do zipper pulls yet but I did do a grab handle for my daughter. Didn't put a lot of time into it though but I love the rope I found.
