He'd need far bigger beads for starters. 

Pool balls I heard...

Cut the cord and make a diamond or button hole knot, usually used on soft shackles.

Don’t quite follow. That loop needs to be on the end

Whip and glue instead of a knot? Would superglue wick in like solder?

[Dan Maynard]

Can you do that end first? Any knot I can think of lets string out of both ends as it tightens and so will be loose inside the balls.

Otherwise you want something like tent pole elastic so you can pull some out before knotting and then it will pull back when you let go.

 Need some sort of cinching knot to put on this loop. It needs to snug right up to the beads so they can’t be separated easily under load. Any clever suggestions?

 

 

There is a guy who lives in Ipswich makes his entire living doing knotting and splicing and associated consultancy.  I forget his name but he trades as footrope knots.  What he does not know about knots is not worth knowing.

I guess I’m not either, thought you just needed a stopper to hold beads in place.

@Matthew Norman Will come up with something. I'm sure there is a way to do this.

 

Whats on the other end? This is how I'd do it. Do the loop, then a crown knot, then the beads, then seal the end.

 

If you want to be really fancy, drill the end with a pilot, drill again so stop the knot pulling through, tie the knot then hammer some dowell in to fill the hole and sand it all off clean
