Rope Making Machine First Run Making Polished Hemp
Edward De Wit sent me this short video of his new Rope Making Machine in action. The old rope making machine had become rather tired, so Edward commissioned this beast of a machine to be made. Edward produces quality cordage in Belgium and he can be contacted via this link: igkt-solent.co.uk/quality-cordage-belgium/
This video is just a very quick view of the machine being put through its paces to produce 6mm polished hemp. There are plans to produce future videos demonstrating the full setting up procedure and detail on how the rope is made.
Some of the technical stuff that you may be asking, regarding this Rope Making Machine and the production of Polished Hemp.

    • @KnottingKnots
      @KnottingKnots 3 дня назад

      With that knot, what I do is as follows; make the shape as shown in figure 1126(a), then I put my hand in through the loop fromed where the arrow is, reach up and pull both leads through the loop (this follows what the arrow is showing), you only need enough pulled through to create another loop. I have found that you then need to just rearrange the line above so that there are no crossing points. Well that was as clear as mud???

    • @KnottingKnots
      @KnottingKnots 3 дня назад

      Forgot to say, the initial loop you have is not the final loop. When you pull the two lines through to create the second loop, that is the final loop. the first loop at the beginning forms part of the knot.

    Very informartive. Could you tell us how to finish the globe knot (hide the rope ends) once you're finished making the knot? I want to put a globe knot on either end of a pole (like you did with the stick with 3 passes), but I'm a complete beginner and don't know how I'd finish the knots once slipped on the end. Thanks!

    • @KnottingKnots
      @KnottingKnots 11 дней назад

      Once you have placed your globe knot over the end of your object, go round a few times and gently but firmly tighten up the knot. Once nice and tight, you can then cute the ends flush and gently tuck any unsightly bits under the Globe Knot. I also find that if you want to give the Globe Knot added protection and lock it all in place, you can use this finishing solution: ruclips.net/video/G9iI7Rm33io/видео.htmlsi=nq0FlqGaElasL_jy Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

      It depends on what you are planning to do with it; if you are creating a neck lanyard, you would bring the two ends together and then use all the strands to tie a decorative knot such as the Matthew Walker knot. If doing a picture frame, I would glue the ends, then cut at 45 degrees for the corners, then cover the joins with a another decorative flat knot, such as the Ocean Plait.

    Here's a crazy idea, only to be used in the most dire of emergencies. The book Practical Knots & Ropework by Percy Blandford has a section on climbing knots. The situation he discusses is that you need to descend a cliff and then recover your rope when you reach the bottom. You need to have something like a tree near the top of the cliff. The best method is to simply pass the rope around the tree and let two equal ends hang down. You use this doubled-up rope to descend and at the bottom you pull on one end to recover the rope. But what if the rope isn't long enough? You need to somehow secure one end of the rope to the tree in such a way that you can still recover it. Here's the crazy idea: You tie an Oysterman's stopper knot and pass it around the tree and under the standing end, with the loop and the knot lying on the ground. That's it! The pressure of the standing end against the face of the stopper knot is supposed to hold the loop in place. You recover the rope at the bottom by giving it a hard shake. The book claims that if you climb carefully, always keeping tension on the rope, you won't fall to your death. Good luck with that!

    Absolutely do NOT put a slip ending on the gnat hitch. That is because the last nip is NOT where you begin to untie this knot. Experiment with a heavy load by using a slip and no slip, and you'll see what I am saying. Also, the gnat was invented to be a secure hitch that is as small as possible. A slip ending just makes the knot bigger while having no purpose as explained above.

    When making either a bed or other structure in the woods, would a transom knot suffice versus a square knot?

    Kalmyk loop/knot is much better, I think. Because it's slipped variant Kazak/Eskimos loop - one of bowline family.

    So if you tied my wrists with this, I could get free?, or would you use knots to keep my wrists bound?

    When i started out, it was a pain in my ass, and took awhile to get how to do em in my hand. After several yrs, i can do em blindfolded. Now I've seen alotta jigs and mandrels, and these look more of a pain than by hand.

    "The mooring hitch can slide along the standing part (A-B); a pull on the other parts (C,D) can lock it into place, forming a fixed loop also known as the Lapp knot. " - Eng wiki Don't mention it!

    Fantastic! I remember watching a net maker in St. Augustine, FL about 50 years ago, and there are still local cast net makers in central florida. You explain the knot techniques so very well - thank you!
