- This was a subscribers request, but I could not find the comment again to give credit. He does not use long lengths of rope, but he does have shorter sections that he keeps in his vehicle. In this video, I tie down wood and a rake. It should be helpful to know when you’re camping, hunting, or fishing.

Next video about how to fix that rake with a knot?
Your the only man in the world that would tie that rake down without feeding the line thru the holes in the rake.....LOL ! You are a great instructor , for simple or more complicated, please keep them coming , as you excel ......many of us are exceling with you . Thanks and God speed
It's hard to say which video of yours is the best. Every video is an amazing gadget. No other youtube channel has taught me as much as yours. You just have a big fan from Prague :D Thanks to youtube :)
Thanks! I watched your video on attaching a pole to a roof rack and was using that to attach a 2x4, but didn't like it because there was only one line, one failure point. This has two failure points before detaching. Much better!
Super helpful, thanks!
Beautiful.
That’s fantastic!
Those are some rock climbing hands brother🙌🏼💯🔥
I like this a lot.
You have the advantage of the vertical ribs on your rack to stop the wood from slipping sideways. Don't know if you already have a video on tying more than one piece to just roof bars. But that would be very useful to see.
Using this to tie a bar across two others in the lorry in order to lock in free standing pallet, used a ratchet strap and a upturned pallet just as precaution..... well see how it does for the next 50+ miles.
One is your knot and the other is the espalier.
Not taking away from this im going to use this love it i lots of times use a sliped constrictor and then secure the ends. Has worked very wall. Like i said this i think is awsome😊
I saw that rake break coming 😊
If you go back and look, that broken rake rib was already broken. He didn’t realize it either but it’s definitely broken. 😁
Trying to remember how to tie knots, thought best way is to help some one else learn it. So me and my 11 year old kept trying this and he did pretty well memorising.
I love the simple yet effective design.
Would be good for hoisting up my punching bag maybe.
Do you have a video of a tie that I could use to hold the punching bag since the straps broke?
Well I think the tension system works, demonstrated by the broken rake.
Because I use rope for different applications, It has always been my case to run out. This tiedown is helpful! Do you intend to fix your rake, as you did in your plastic repair video?
I have several short pieces of rope with a bowline tied into one end and use running bowline knots in same manner
Why was the lashing step for the rake handle different than the other three? No X on top or bottom.
Awesome videos! Thanks, I really appreciate them! I was just wondering, do you think that 550 paracord would be strong enough to tie down a piece of wood like that? I don't yet have 1/4. Thanks!
Would prusik have a proper grip on a square sided object like that piece of wood i wonder.
I would have to see "HowNot2" doing pull tests before I would try that. I feel that a prusik should be tied around a rope of the same or greater diameter, but that's just a feeling and I don't have any hard data on it. It feels like a prusik could slip if it were tied to a nice smooth piece of wood like FCA has in this video.
@@recklessroges Prusik will probably work. For a single line (not a loop) I would either use the rolling hitch, or, if it's really serious (or you're tying to a block of ice) one of my all-time favorites, the mighty icicle hitch.
Pull tests would definitely be great, though.
Why not throw a frap or two with the excess when tying the rake?
👍🙏
Is there a there a type of taut-line hitch that has a 'handle' (a loop?) to pull on, to release or add tension?
What I hate about the taut-line is the awkward way you have to push the hitch up the line under tension.
You could tie an Alpine Butterfly to form a "handle" loop to pull the main line tight and use the tautline to secure. I've thought about doing that on tent guy ropes. 👍
I often think a Trucker’s hitch is better for that situation for the very reason you speak.
@@13Voodoobilly69 I agree, but his latest video (Knot Fundamentals) shows a good solution at the end - the modified truckers hitch, with the stick which rotates and allows a quick release.
There are several that fits that description.
Might not be your field of expertise, but I want to know how to tie a catenary wire and get it as tight as possible. All the electricians at work do them so loose so I want to teach them the correct way to do it. If you know the best way, please let me know.
Use a icicle hitch and a truckers hitch (auto locking)and make a come along. Then when it's a tight as you can get it, insert spanner into the eye of the load nut and tighten.
What kind of rope do you use?
I think he usually uses 1/4 inch Para-Max cord.

Why not just use a double overhand?
🇵🇬🇵🇬 I'm have put. A comment 3 days ago
That's knot going anywhere
👍
What's the advantage in using the angler's loop in this scenario over, say, the bowline? The latter is readily untied, strong and offers the same shape with the "saddle" to rest against.
Just his choice of loop I would use a double dragon.
It's preference I imagine.
That's not goin anywhere!
That's not goin' anywhere.
Hmm. I don't love tying overhand knots in line unless the knot is around another piece of line. Overhand knots are hell to untie if they somehow get under load. Of course, in your example, they will not be under load, so it's OK, even though it gives me the willies. Would a figure-8 work as nicely for you?
my gosh
That's not going anywhere!
