- Dan Mink, The Rhinestone Roper, and 5 year old Grandson Jayce demonstrate How To Make A Rope with an Old Time Rope Making Machine. Dan explains the equipment, the setup and how to choose the weight of twine. He also teaches the proper use of the machine and techniques required to make a smooth, tight and beautiful rope as well as useful safety tips. Join the Ropers and revisit an Old Time skill.
Appreciated your little camera man... :) Good job in instructing how to use this old machine. :) from Maple Creek, Saskatchewan.
Thanks
Great teamwork. Good to see another generation getting involved. A good rope is almost as handy to have as🦆tape.
I agree! Add a hammer to that kit and you've got it made.
Great lesson, I had no idea rope making was so doable at home. This was very informative and hugely enjoyable, thank you Dan and assistant cameraman Jayce.
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Здравствуйте мастер!
Прекрасная работа!
Очень интересно посмотреть устройство крутящей машинки, с разборкой и обслуживанием (смазкой). Благодарю!
AM SENEGALES WEST AFRICA. AFTER WATCHING YOUR VIDEO I COME SO HAPPY TO KHOW A FREE JOB WITHOUT ANY ELECTRICITY TOOLS. THANKS FOR FULLY HAND MADE .
You are welcome.
Bright!
Thank you very much! It is one I've been searching for.
You're welcome!
Great explanation. Love your work
Thank you!
This video was very helpful. We are using a Meyer rope making device in our museum in St. Augustine, FL - Treasure Chest.
Great!
Great video and really appreciate the safety warnings. It's good to let children and even adults that the nanny government isn't there to protect them from themselves.
I've had a few girls get their hair caught as they tried to go under the rope that was being made. Luckily I've never had anyone get anything caught in the machine.
Thank you for showing me how to make a rope very interesting first time I see videos of making rope very good job working with your son that makes a really good Bond good job. Lost my father when I was 16 years old I am 55 now what I have left now is everything my father and I did together memories Keep up the good work
You are very welcome Kevin.
Good job on your ropes
I've been making rope since 1970 and it still interested me . The combinations of colors are endless as long as you have a variety of twines .I use both sisal and poly propaliene plastic twine in the same rope some times.
Thank you. What is sisal?
okay, sisal is the fibrous rope? It's a chore to use isn't it.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 sisapl Baylor twine is old b grass twine that was used before plastic twine came out to put around hay bales.it works the same way except you might need an extra person to help keep the strands separated because the twine has hairs on it that will grab your rope as you twist it .. plus you can add more strings on each hook to increase the rope size .I usually only make three strand rope but I can make it as big as you want..
Thanks for the nice video!
Glad you liked it!
A rope ladder keeps the line off the ground
Always used a screwdriver or something similar on the swivel end to yank away fast without risking a finger.
Good idea!
Thanks for the video my friend. I’m getting ready to do this for a bunch of boys as an activity. I have forgotten how to do it so I appreciate the refresher.
Hi Bryan, nice to hear from you. I got home from being on tour. How is everyone?
There's a DIY video on how to make these without a hand crank using a power drill
Cool!
What is the specific name of this machine? Very cool video
The 4 Hook Rope Making Machine is what I call it. I'm glad you liked the video.
Very informative. What would you do if you wanted a longer rope, say 200ft?
It is possible to make a very long rope but it takes some planning. You would need to start with the twine strung on the machine at almost 300 feet. You would need several people at 60ft. intervals helping to keep the twines separated. Then keep a watch on your weight. When it reaches up to the swivel, you have to pull the machine forward until the weight goes back to the ground, then start turning the handle again. You will have to do this several times for a 200ft rope.
The use of a rope ladder is needed to keep the strands off the ground . Looks like short topped H s. H. H
Very informative
Any Tutorial about
How the machine is made please?
Thank you
I have seen videos that feature hand made machines. My machine is not hand made but is the best I have seen. It's made by Fred Mueller from Sheridan Wyoming.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 I wish he still made the machines! I've been looking for one.
How funny, his little helper had to go pee. , HURRY UP.......
I probably should have sped things up.
Where did you get that machine?
hi David, Fred Mueller from Sheridan WY makes them
@@rhinestoneropers9204 You wouldn't happen to know if he has email or is still selling them? I only found his address through Farm Show. I do historical reenactment for schools, camps, and living history events and would love to purchase one.

Hope your cameraman gets more practice.
Same here.
