  • How to Tie the Transom Knot - How to Lash Poles at Right Angles.
    The Transom Knot is similar in construction to the Constrictor Knot, like the constrictor knot, it will hold an object extremely tightly at right angle.
    If you happen to be a bushcrafter and wanting to build a shelter, then this knot could be just for you. There will be times that you need to lash poles together at right angles and this knot will hold them firm.
    Maybe if you want to lash your torch to a tent pole, then the Transom Knot can help with this task. These are just a few examples of what the Transom Knot is for.

    It's just like tying a clove hitch, but some silly sod put a pipe in the way.
    Very handy to learn as I have lots of tomato plants to "cane up" so I'll give this a try. Thanks.

      Just out of curiosity, would the knot need to be loosened on a regular basis as the plant grows?

    Does it help to tie a few wraps either side with the free ends and then either clove hitches or constrictor knots to make it more secure.

    I'm doing something wrong. Mine ends up being a shabby clove hitch. 🤔
    Falls apart immediately, and somehow I end up lacking a crossover. Which explains the instability, but not where I did the mistake.
    Tying a fork to the chair is maybe not the most fulfilling practise anyways.

      @@KnottingKnots Yes, indeed, btw, isn’t this something like a cinch knot(?) or binding knot(?) (something like that)? Sort of a clove hitch with the working end passed under the crossing point in an overhand knot? Am I making any sense?

    You say as,I might add do others including Ashley in your disruption that this is similar to the constrictor knot ,well that is not so as this is in fact a double overhand or strangle knot,if you tie it around two removable objects you will see that is so.

    • @spoede64
      @spoede64 3 роки тому +2

      The loops may take another way, but the knot itself on top of the pipe works exactly like the constrictor.
      So for me its a constrictor with spreaded legs.
