HOW TO TIE THE QUICK GUY-LINE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- TARPS / TENTS AND MANY OTHER CAMPING DEVICES NEED A STAKE AND LINE TO KEEP IT SECURE.MANY TIMES THIS LINE IS A SIMPLE ROPE AND A STAKE O NTHE END WITH A FEW KNOTS THROWN IN TO SECURE IT.THIS VIDEO SHOWSA NEW WAY TO DO THAT OLD JOB, A GUY LINE THAT CAN BE ADJUSTED FOR LENGHT AND NOT REQUIRE NEW KNOTS BE TIED. THE QUICK GUY-LINE IS A CORD WITH A BOWLINE ON ONE END AND A PRUSIK KNOT ON THE OTHER THAT JOINS BACK TO ITSELF TO FOR THE SELF TIGHTEN KNOT. IF THE CORDAGE USED IS 550 PARACORD OR #36 TARED BANK LINE IT WILL WORK WELL. I CREATE MY GUYLINES THEN LEAVE THEN ATTACHED TOTHE TENT STAKES AND ROLL THEM UP FOR EACH USE.THIS WILL MAKE SET UP QUICK AND FAST WITH LITTLE EFFORT.

Here's a helpful hint for those using especially slippery cord. When you tie the prussic loop, instead of just making three turns, go 4, 5, or 6. Doing this greatly increases the friction so it grabs the line better. This applies to friction knots in general, the more turns, the more friction. Hope this helps!
Blackie, another innovative bush craft idea! We're limited only by our imaginations. Very useful information.
Cheers Blackie. Brilliant video. I'm ex British Para & we used some meen knots for to put up some tarps(basha's). Use tarps & bashas alot these days sleeping out so.e weekends down on the moors. THIS VID EVERYONE, shows a frightfully simple combination of two great knots we all know to make a quick set up even faster.
Can't think why I never thought of that myself before Blackie.
As we say here GOOD JOB. WELL DONE MARRA (FREIND)
Most definitely using this one brother Blackie, this will be in the pack… Thanks again for the “quick & easy ‘s,” safe travels…
You bet
I loving listening too the birds. Don’t shout at them 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤😅
Great nice and so simple trick, I have learned so many things by watching your vidios. Thanks and greeting from Germany.
Good technique and tip Blackie!
One of the biggest advantage of a prusick over a taut line hitch is the additional loop which causes additional friction, and is more likely to remain in place under tension.
you are correct plus it will adjust easy
Blackie , Great video I really like the way you are passing on the knowledge of the Craft. Thanks so much. Tim L.
Very welcome
Love 😂 the Cat. They always want too be the stare 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
Way Cool....I always added a prusik when needed from some spare looped paracord, nice to utilize the end of a bowline to create a very versatile and pre-prusik extention grab & go. Southern Man as per Neil Young....Cheers!
As always, another very good idea,Thank you for the knowledge.
Thanks again!
I love how your loving on your cat. 😂❤. I’m not a cat person. But I love 💕 your cat and give them the Lovering 😂❤😂❤😂❤
Great idea. I will be making up several of these. Try dipping the paranoid in boiling water for about 20 seconds and let them dry out. I have done this when making paranoid boot laces. It helps the paranoid to grip better.
Wonderful. Let me try this as parachute cord instead of paranoid cord. Although at times it does seem more appropriate.
@@vincentsaitta650 🤣
OMG I love autocorrect!
Great video! Excited to use this knot to simplify everything. Thank u!
I love this idea. I did make one little change. I put a poachers noose on the end that normally would have the prusik. It restricts and stays tight when under pressure just as the prusik does. I put the toggle on line with the noose behind the knot and it makes the cord highly functional. Thanks again for the video, Blackie. edit: Went back to using the prusik. The poachers noose doesn't want to stay stable when under pressure.
Thank you so much! I saw a glimpse of this last night,and it wasnt working for me. Now Ive got it
I just figured out how to do this yesterday and we do it in a similar manner. Great idea sir and I'm going to incorporate this into my kit.
Excellent!
It's called a Purcell Prusik. I like the way you tie it.
Very slick tie out. Thanks!
Love this video! Now to put it into practice.
Hey there Blackie , just watching more of your videos and gonna make up a handful of these . Dam good idea!!!👍
Right on
👍 .. another nifty one .. thanks.
Perfect timing I’m just about to set up my hammock & tarp.
Me too
Just found your videos. Ive been wanting to set up the prussic guy but was making it too complicated on myself. I really like how this allows someone to get rid of the metal or plastic hardware and just use the rope, saving a few grams, while being just as functional. Thanks for the tip on wrapping the line around the stake for stuffing.... Ive definitely been one to try and leave the line on the tarp an not loved how stuffing/rolling with the lines resulted.
ah yes, something else to learn, thank you.
You are welcome!
I like it...I like it a lot. Thank you, Sir.
Good instructions , thanks for sharing , God bless !
thank you for this tip, its in the kit now
Got it! Thanks, Blackie
Thumbs up!!!

Thanks for the excellent tips for the guy line. You're kit is most effective, I learn so many things from you.
Thanks for watching!
Blacky when you are burning the ends of your line after blowing out the flame touch the burned end on either your lighter metal parts or your knife blade to instantly cool the burned line. Dang Mocking Birds always have to interrupt everything we have to do.
Blackie, new subscriber. I like the way you explain the process and how to do it and why you do it the way you do. It makes the best sense to me and you speak clearly and easily understood. I don't get out to the woods as often as I like to and see how many great ideas for rapid readiness and take down. I can use them for many things even at home. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me and the yt community
Great idea.
Thank-you for that hint. Worked well using the 3 edged tent stake in place of the tube to form the prussic.
Glad it helped
I love this idea, I can see me replacing all those silly plastic clips on all my tents with this system.
it would work well for that
Very clever, thanks! I will be digging out my tarp stake bag and a roll of #36 bankline tomorrow.
Sounds great!
I've done those with taut line hitches. Your bowline Prussik if superior for sure. I think the cat likes that word.
lol he like to get in the shot every so often
Good lesson 👍🏻 thanks brother..
No problem 👍
We go to the woods to live, and inhabit towns etc to survive 👍
I need to get my ten second tarp and hammock video done, I think you'll like it, no knots apart from prepwork :-D
Great tip Blackie 🤠
Glad you enjoyed it
great videos Blackke! Just happened upon your channel, but have watched a bunch of you vidos. very goodd stuff, and well done. i like the quick guyline - although ive used something similar, i never thought to take the loop off the tree and carry it around like that great idea! Fwiw, something ive been using lately is the fairmond friction hitch...it would replace your prusik + bowline with one knot, and can be made quick realease (but secure.) Ive used it on the anchor side of a ridgeline with a truckers hitch on the other end and actually broken the cord on the truckers slip knot without the friction hitch slipping. its basically just a prusik with a different ending method. Anyway im suscribed and looking forward to seeing more of your vids.
thanks for the comment..and i hope you find lots more of my video of use ..safe journeys
Good idea thanks.
You did a video about these stakes last year that got my gears turning and I prussic'd the loop to a guy line. Larks head to the tarp. So easy it's stupid. Thanks Blackie. You do give me ideas.
glad to be helpful
Damn Glad I watched this to the end. I thought you were going to add extra cordage to the line with a separate line Prussic. Now I see the incorporation of the Prussic into the same line. COOL. Way Better than a Taught Line Hitch.
I am going to tie mine with a larger Bowland on the end to do a pass through though. Then no toggle will be necessary. Camp ground thinking not just out in the woods thoughts. Since I do both.
Thanks for the information, I like this all in one system. Wa
i will make mine for my tarps like that..that way i can still toggle if i need to but with pass thru and simply larks head it to the gromet
@@BLACKIETHOMAS 👍
Thanks for the video.
You bet
thumbs up good idea
Thanks 👍
This really helped thanks alot
Glad to hear!
Great video and ideas, Blackie. Would a taut line hitch with a bowline at the other end serve the same purpose?
The question I have is, why not use the tent stake that you have to help make the knot? I find the stakes are much more accessible than finding sticks or a straw to feed the line-just my opinion. Not everyone has stakes that have a channel.
Very useful thank you for the tip. Now about that silly bird...😂.
Glad it was helpful! yep he was singing up a storm
Blackie, I don't see you use Navy shotline. I use it for everything requiring small cordage. What I am talking about is Mil-L-18925 nylon cord used for connecting lines between ships after being carried to the terminus by a rubber grenade fired from an M-14 (and yes the Navy still uses M-14s).
hmmm sounds interesting i will check it out thanks
Great advice Blackie, much appreciated. I'm kinda new to all these different knots. even though I'm not new to camping. I have a question (forgive my stupidity) Is there a standard basic length of the loop that you make your prussic knot? I'm trying to set up a quick and easy tarp ridgeline using paracord for the ridgeline and No. 36 Bankline for the the 2 prussic loops, just like your video on the quick ridgeline. Thanks. 👍
i am sure some math guy will tell you there is..but for me its trial and error i will do a loop test fit too small i will re tie when i find rough correct size i will make a mental note and go from there
@@BLACKIETHOMAS Thank you.🙂👍
I’m sorry love. I need-too🎉 stop watching , cos you’ve shown your cats!!!!! Come on Love. Give us a chance?????? 🤷♀️🙏💖🇬🇧💕😜
Climbers call this a "Purcell Prusik", your minimum length of 3 ft. can be cut in half to 18" by just folding it in half. Climbers use these to make adjustable "Personal Anchors". Mike.
Blackie, this question is a little off topic from what you are covering here but on one of your 'Percussion Revolver" videos you show using a kit to make up paper cartridges. I had a , maybe dumb, question concerning the construction but here goes. When you do the loading of the chamber with individual components you used wads, yes? Is not the chance of 'chain fire' still the same with paper cartridge's as with individual components? If so, why do you not put a wad in the paper cartridge? For that matter, why do you not use some 'soy wax pearls' in the powder of the paper cartridge as well? Maybe I'm missing something other than the limited space inside the paper cartridge tube. Can you let me and others know? Thanks for your time, sir. Matt
hey not a bad question at all..the paper of the ctg acts like the wad to seal the chamber and i will often add a few soy wax pearls in for a bit extra lube down bore
Great video. I have been looking for how to tie the prussik this way. Question: wouldn't a taut line hitch work just as well as the prussik?
It should
There are easier and faster ways to do this!
My dad started hunting with a 22 410 over and under I recently came across one at my local gun store what do you think of the 410 for a woods gun?
Dear Cover your own A, I had a friend that dear hunted with a similar type rifle. It was a .223 over 20ga. He Only did head shot on deer and the other was for turkey hunting. He loved it. It made sense he was not a firearm enthusiast ,so it fit his purpose. Unless you need a larger caliber for protection from bear you should do well. Just my 2 cents.
Would like to get the book, I will buy it.
i will bring those out soon
@@BLACKIETHOMAS Thanks, I may be 60 years old , but always want to learn more about the craft and I thank you for sharing your knowledge.
