I first saw this on a hand rail on an American warship which was visiting Melbourne in 1964. I was 12 years old and was fascinated.Had no idea how it was done. I always used to play with rope and string but had no direction till I discovered ABOK in my 30s.It is my all time favourite book. Thanks for posting.
I come across one of your videos the first time last week and have watched a few since. I must say that I'm a fan. I need to make time to watch your frame series as I need ideas on a project that I have. I see that Mr. Snellman has committed to, I know that I'm in good company.
great video, thank you. May I please ask, what is the best/longest lasting cord for this on say a tiller? I was planning to varnish over it after. Thank you.
I can't wait to learn how to coachwhip, I tried a few times but I'm still getting it wrong, I tied one of those big flowers the other day and I've been trying to coachwhip the loose ends to look like a stem.
Great video. It’s great to see the basic pattern being repeated several times ... too many instructions only show it once and if you don’t catch on with that one example, you’re lost. Would love to see video on sizing, finishing and sealing ... I’m new to your videos so I’ll check out your other ones to see if that’s covered. Thanks for posting this!
One of my main focus’ in starting this channel was to allow those at any level to have success by watching my tutorials… Thank you so much for the comment
Great video John! Keep em comin’! Keep in mind that with coachwhipping, if you have gaps you can alway lace a few lines in later to fill the gaps! Thanks again. Do you know when you plan to upload your process for sealing the rope?
Well .... yes and no .... on the two frames I’ve done most recently I’ve used two different materials and methods ... this one will be a bit different yet.... most common method is using a small brush and “dabbing” either clear Shellac or water based Polyurethane..... shellac requires a long time to dry to give an even appearance... poly dries fast Those are the most common methods ... nothing magic 😂
@@TrevvettKnots Mikko Snellman has a tutorial on sealing bellropes that uses shellac and tar. Can’t remember if it on the regular RUclips channel or on his Ko-fi channel. Very good tutorial on coach whipping, thanks for sharing. Just discovered your channel and look forward to viewing your other videos. Donald
Hi I watched your tutorial several times and was great to share it, I do have a small comment at the start with the first strands on top ... I think the 2nd strand from the left that goes on top should get down the 1st strand from right and top the 2nd strand so would look under and over matching the 1st strand besides it ... am I right?
You are absolutely correct … I have been too lazy to re-do the video …. In fact , crossing in the front to start isn’t really necessary at all … these are the foibles of learning to do something and then immediately making a tutorial …. The rest of it is correct but it does in fact irk me that I have left it that way 🙄
@@TrevvettKnots Thank you ... appreciated and again was very excellent tutorial and best way to learn are from knowing our mistakes ... thank you again so much and have a lovely day.
Hi there John (Jon?), thank you so much for an excellent tutorial, very useful and clear. I'd like to coach whip around a boathook stave I've just made but am not familiar with how to calculate whipping lengths. I hate wasting rope as am very scringey (real word), Would you mind giving your two penny worth? Many thanks and I look fwd to your future posterages
The length of the lines to cover in Coachwhipping is rather dependent on the circumference of the object being covered. Off the top of my head … the last project I made was covering a 10mm rope with 16 (4x4) strands in 2mm…. It took essentially double the length of the rope being covered( core)
You apparently can because I see it all the time … but I’ve never done it …. Sounds like potential issues would be involved …. Reach out to Sue Pennison … she makes beautiful Chest Beckets and I’m sure she knows
A mirror is a good idea .... might do it while tying this in the future ... thanks for the suggestion.... as to the gaps it’s really just a matter of figuring the correct size of the core in reference to the size and number of strands ....
@@TrevvettKnots , Howdy; How about Pages 2-34 & 35 Called Crosspointing in the BM 3&2 and the formula is; (Length x 3 = ?) + (Cir. x 3 = ?) = Length of each strand .

That’s been suggested and I’ll be doing that myself .... talking to Skip Hipps last night he said he uses one of those magnified mirrors underneath on a variety of sennits
I’ve thought about it .... it’s Conquistador weave ... there are probably 8 or 10 tutorials on the Paracord guys channels ... I just try not to double up on something readily available.... but I’ll consider it again in that you asked....
@@TrevvettKnots fair enough comment about the doubling up... BUT consider this, many people dont follow those other guys and why leave all the views to them? Some people just prefer a variety of tutorials. Case in point, I watched two different tutorials on how to cover knobs with the 2216 knot, yet only the second video made the process completely clear.
@@johnfurr8779 that actually comes from a video by Mikko Snellman from the beginning of last Summer ... I’ll send you a link eventually... working at the moment
I hear ya.... but it mostly a matter of time ... I work full time and work hard just to get one video out per week ... the theme of this channel is Sennit frames .... but I will be doing other stuff at some point

Thank you for a clear guide John. And be careful with the overs and unders at the start.
Yeah ..... I saw that after the fact.... thank goodness for turksheads!!!!
Yo u mean at 03:25. Or 06:04 tue same error, or?

Im just starting three more frames ...one for me and two for a customer .... welcome aboard!
Thanks so much for doing this video and for sharing your expertise. Love hearing the birds.
Thank you for taking the time to put this out there. There are quite a few that tie for many reasons, it’s always good to get a different view point.
Thanks .... I usually look at a bunch of different tutorials ... but then there are many that you simply won’t find much about as well....
Thank you, Thank you ! I have that book, but this is SO much clearer and enlightening !
Thanks …. Glad it was helpful😎
great video, thank you. May I please ask, what is the best/longest lasting cord for this on say a tiller? I was planning to varnish over it after. Thank you.
I have a long Turkshead tied in cotton on my tiller … sealed in Captains Z Spar Varnish (5 coats)
I do this braid without a core. Thanks John!
I can't wait to learn how to coachwhip, I tried a few times but I'm still getting it wrong, I tied one of those big flowers the other day and I've been trying to coachwhip the loose ends to look like a stem.
It’s basically tying a round braid but with the two differences being 1) you’re tying around a core 2) you’re tying with multiple lines at a time
What you are doing with the ends of the strands? You cover them with a Turk's Head? Or you can start with a Crown-Knot and ending with a Wall-Knot?
Ultimately you cover both ends with something … Turks heads nicely cover a cylindrical object …
Even with 3 looks great I can imagine a red white and blue on a paddle handle.
Excellent tutorial. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the tutorial! It was very well executed. 👍
Glad it was helpful!

What was your rate? I was a BM and I did all the fancy work in O country on my last ship. Very cool tutorial!!
I was an Aviation Electrician 😂…learned my initial knotting from my dad as a kid loooong before the Navy … been sailing most of my life

Классно ! Очень интересно!
Thanks for the tutorial!
What’s the link to your sponsors website. I couldn’t find it with a google search.
www. KnoticalUSA.com
There is a link in the Channel description
Trevvett Knots tanx!
Howdy; Nicely done, Gaps lend themselves to charactor.
Could you have used a mirror to "see" what you're doing on the back side?
A mirror is a good idea .... might do it while tying this in the future ... thanks for the suggestion.... as to the gaps it’s really just a matter of figuring the correct size of the core in reference to the size and number of strands ....
Hola saludos desde Lima-Peru....
Welcome aboard ... thanks for watching!
Can you make a video on making your carrick bend bracelet??
The Carrick bend bracelet is from a video by Mikko Snellman from about who years ago. You can still look that up on his channel
Very nice John. How long was the finished piece and how long were the lines you started with?
I tied that particular piece purely for the tutorial but Boatwainsmate 3&2 gives a guideline on length...Ill see if I can send it along
Looks like I can’t send an attachment through this ....direct message me on FB messenger and I’ll send it to you
@@TrevvettKnots , Howdy; How about Pages 2-34 & 35 Called Crosspointing in the BM 3&2 and the formula is;

Just wondering how you start and stop it
Constrictor knot
Brasil Manaus Am muito bom parabéns.
Can you put the link of the sponsor in the description
It’s in there … www.KnoticalUSA.com
I think I'll put a mirror on the table before I start so I can see what happens underneath the rope.
That’s been suggested and I’ll be doing that myself .... talking to Skip Hipps last night he said he uses one of those magnified mirrors underneath on a variety of sennits
Nice tutorial.
How about a tutorial on how to tie the wristband on your left wrist?
I’ve thought about it .... it’s Conquistador weave ... there are probably 8 or 10 tutorials on the Paracord guys channels ... I just try not to double up on something readily available.... but I’ll consider it again in that you asked....
