Jessie - Thanks for the clear and easy to understand instructions on this lashing training. You're very good at your craft and teaching others. I get tired of watching people that are trying to LEARN a skill and TEACH that skill at the same time.
awesome, i built a cathedral with a friend at a church camp a few years ago out of long logs, 27 feet high using no screws just these knots to tie everything together.
Much respect , you do awesome job, I watch many bushcrafting shows during this COVID time, learning to do knots , this is what the scouts used to learn decades ago, teaching survival tequniques, keep up the work , clear explanation with a smile, keep safe, keep well from daz in australia
Masterful! Very simple, concise instruction. Good camera work. This was all around a really well done video. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
Beautifully done. I've been deciding on knots for the roof of my A-frame shelter. This will definitely be the winner. Thank you for the amazing video. Keep up the good work.
Would love to know what you’re doing now. I’ve been thinking about how to have a career using these types of skills. Martial arts and bushcraft are two things I’ll never get bored with.
One of the important points people forget about the square lashing is that if you alternate laying the working end inside and outside the previous lay of the lashing turns, the frapping turns will be much more effective. The lashing turns then sit against the spars in the corners rather than sticking out. If they are sticking out, the frapping turns don't squeese the lashing turns very effectively.
Oh, by the way . . . how do I soften a hard rope? It is a brand new rope. It is 1/2 thick. It is a nylon fabric rope . . . it is hard. The bites I make is a bit stiff. How do I soften this rope? Throw it in a washing machine? Woudl that work? thx.
Excellent! Your demos and explanations are outstanding - I am totally loving your method of tying a Bowline! It's so much easier than the "Rabbit comes out of the hole and around the tree" method! Breaking it down into it's constituent "subknots" is brilliant.
Looks like the rope that gets lashed to the left is about 25 feet long and the one on the right that is holding up the branch is about 6 feet long. She seems to be using normal paracord, and that has a diameter of 4mm
Wow. That would easily hold the weight of a large man. Is there a cord/rope that will withstand the elements for a year or so and retain its integrity?
In the first 2 minutes you named knots that I’ve never heard of so I’m just stopping now. You are obviously way above my knowledge base and I need to start with tying shoes or something
nice technique, but can be done way faster: the first side you fixed temporarily: just lean the to-be-horizontal pole angainst the tree, then tie it to the tree going round both pole and tree with the rope 4 or 5 times - if you lift up the other end to where it is goint to be tied to the other tree, this janks the connection you just did tight. and the second connection goes faster without having to pull the whole rope around every time: just pull a bight instead of the whole rope over the horizontal pole, then underneath it, around the tree and slip it over the end of the horizontal pole - next bight etc
In new at this and wondered when it comes to will any type of paracord work, ex: paracord 550 from somewhere like Walmart? Will that work ok, or would I need to buy a specific Type just trying to make sure I have good cord . I just don't know what would be bettter. Do you have any videos on the multi use purposes of paracord, I love your knot videos. Thank you !
Compared to some of the sparse cord we got on eBay, the 550 paracord from Walmart is actually quite well constructed for heavy tasks and suitable for anything outdoorsy. 😊
Your finishing knot is not a clove-hitch. In a clove-hitch the loose end would go under BOTH legs of the 'X'. Your s only goes under the top one. Your knot might be called a 'half clove@ or similar.
I always cringe when I see people wrapping a lashing from one end like this. Pulling the entire length around each bit. So much easier and faster, bend the middle over one log, weave each end in opposite directions, frap/tie-off, done.
More an idiots guide for the inept, but obviously necessary. First price and big thanks for getting straight to the point without big jiggly intros and ages of talk about how great you are and explaining what a rope is and when you learned about it like most vids shot by men.
Regardless of experience, we are more credible when our words are kind and are willing to give others the benefit of the doubt. Now hug and and make up 😉
@Greg Letter if you're going to teach someone how to do something make sure you're doing it correctly. There are 2 ways to do the square lashing. The most common starts with a Clove Hitch, 3 wraps, 2 Fraps, finish with a Clove Hitch. The 2nd is the Japanese Square (frankly I think the better one) start in middle of your rope, using both ends make 3 wraps, 2 Fraps, and finish with a square knot. Those are the correct ways to do a square lashing
@Greg Letter it has been proven that it will fall apart, especially with that gauge rope. The bowline isn't a secure enough know with putting an additional half hitch in to lock it.
@Greg Letter not talking about climbing. Thats a completely different knot set. Besides you don't use a bowline for climbing. Also, yes lashings do move
@Greg Letter yep done arguing over something so stupid. Ill continue to teach my scouts the proper way to tie their lashings, knots, and why. You continue doing you, ok? Glad we agree.
I just think there is way too much time spent with all of these stupid knots!!! I swear you have to be a nuclear physicist to understand some of them. I have never ever had a problem just tying a regular every day knot, never…ever…
Great teacher that explains really well and has an awesome smile too!!
Jessie - Thanks for the clear and easy to understand instructions on this lashing training. You're very good at your craft and teaching others. I get tired of watching people that are trying to LEARN a skill and TEACH that skill at the same time.
Hope you're well JK! I was really rooting for you on Alone. Great to see you on television again. Hope you're enjoying your down time! Ez pz!
awesome, i built a cathedral with a friend at a church camp a few years ago out of long logs, 27 feet high using no screws just these knots to tie everything together.
3 years and so good, everytime wnts camping outdoors return to this video. Tku/
This woman is delightful! Plus, I learn about knots too!
Cool! I like the way you tie the Bowlin.
Much respect , you do awesome job, I watch many bushcrafting shows during this COVID time, learning to do knots , this is what the scouts used to learn decades ago, teaching survival tequniques, keep up the work , clear explanation with a smile, keep safe, keep well from daz in australia
Well done .....very clear and enthusiastically explained ....3 cheers

She explains really really well. Good stuff.
Fascinating! Enjoyed watching an expert.😃
Would love to know what you’re doing now. I’ve been thinking about how to have a career using these types of skills. Martial arts and bushcraft are two things I’ll never get bored with.
Thank you so much! This is one helpful video!
All your material is useful and clearly explained, with improved variations on existing know-how - good job.
You really are a fantastic instructor!
Thanks again, wicked knot gal.
This is some incredible skill!
very helpful and easy to understand
Dang Jessie, you're awesome sister! Thanks for teaching me!
Great video!
Excellent video channel.
Thanks!! I will try this 🥳🥳

Not sure I understand what spars are .
Thank you very much!
Very well done!
Man that's useful, bigtime!
I love your videos. Keep up the excellent work. Maybe need a mic on the camera so we can hear your better.
I like the way you explain things
Same
Very nice, I always wondered how that was done.
Very good. Thanks for sharing
Great channel. Thank You.
Well done.
Marvellous. Great instruction thanks.
Thank you.
Have you tried Japanese square lashing. When I’ve taught scouts, they were much more proficient a tying off with a square knot at the end.
what kind of line are you using there?
Fantastic!!!!!!
I know several eagle scouts who are less skilled with knots.
Oh, by the way . . . how do I soften a hard rope? It is a brand new rope. It is 1/2 thick. It is a nylon fabric rope . . . it is hard. The bites I make is a bit stiff. How do I soften this rope? Throw it in a washing machine? Woudl that work? thx.
Está bueno, pero también es bueno llevar un rollo de alambre, siempre te saca de apuros.
Well presentation.thanks
damn you good!! love your work!
What a fun and capable lady.
I love your videos! May I make a humble suggestion to use a lavalier mic so that your narration is captured regardless of which way you're facing?
Excellent! Your demos and explanations are outstanding - I am totally loving your method of tying a Bowline! It's so much easier than the "Rabbit comes out of the hole and around the tree" method! Breaking it down into it's constituent "subknots" is brilliant.
I agree! Very awesome 😄
Thanks for the suggestion of the Microphone type Jeff! 🙋
Hi. How big are these ropes?

Love it

Молодец спасибо,большое
Great job. We'll done. KeepAlert. StayFOCUSED. BePREPARED. On steroids! Semper Fidelis! Semper PARATUS! Forever!
In the first 2 minutes you named knots that I’ve never heard of so I’m just stopping now. You are obviously way above my knowledge base and I need to start with tying shoes or something
😂 Mine too! I love her explanations though. Thanks for doing these super practical knots! 🙆🌴
If I'm lost in wild country & in need of help I will pray that I you are nearby.........I know you will save my life..
like to see woman in this field, nice video good teacher

@Greg Letter unfortunately not that I know of.
The knot whisperer.
I'm confused, I hear bowlen and bow-line as pronunciations for bowline. Which is it?
@@ThePrepared Nah, it's bowline, comes from the simple fact that the know has been used to tie bow strings.
👍👍👍

You remind me on sonya blade
Who thumbs down these videos? What exactly were they expecting?
It to be done the right way
👏👏
OOHRAH! Semper Fi

What do you want to be when you grow up, little girl? Little girl: "A man."
Just kidding! Some of my best friends are men.
💚
You lost me at the halter hitch.
.
The only things that were correct in this whole video was the 3 wraps and the finishing clove hitch. *face palm*
