  • @backwoodstrails
    @backwoodstrails 3 года назад +10

    That one is a tripod lashing with plain turns, the other (not shown) is a tripod lashing with "racking turns" where you weave in and out between the poles.The one with racking turns will provide less slippage since there is more cordage in contact with each pole. Your method is faster and most likely good enough for most applications. I had only known the one with the "racking turns" so was interested when I saw you do this method.

    As young I was taught the rule of thumb to make the number of lashings so that the it's at least as wide as half the thickness of the poles. I haven't really made any tests to find out if it really matters but it has always made for really good tripods.

  • @eddienunn9745
    @eddienunn9745 3 года назад +6

    I like the tripod lash. I have an idea for a simple adjustable pot hanger you may want to try. Tie a loop in one end of a 5 foot piece of paracord and a stop knot in the other end. Next tie a pursic knot near the stop knot. Hang the line on one of the end poles of the tripod by the pursic loop. Attach the pot to the loop end of the paracord. To adjust the height of the pot just grasp the pursic knot with your thumb and index finger and pull the paracord through the knot in the direction you want the pot to go. Simple and easy, you probably carry a few small pieces of cordage anyway so perhaps one could be used for multiple purposes. Thanks for the great videos.

    Hello! Great video, just one comment: the final knot you put on the poles at 9:23 looks like a Constrictor Hitch rather than a Clove Hitch. They've very similar, and in a case like this where you want to maintain the tension I think the Constrictor is a great choice, but I figured I'd mention it in case other people look up the Clove Hitch and get a different knot. Thanks for all your great content over the years!
