- This video shows how to build a clothesline, it's a pretty simple project, the hardest part is probably digging the holes for the post. Find a material and cut list on my blog the total material was about $65

For the past 60 + years electric tools have been the dominion of my husband and one of my son. I am up on using an electric screwdriver already and the tools at our home should provide the power. I want to add clothes lines to my thrifty homemaker homestead and I must say your instructions and the videos has me thinking I must just be able to do this. Thank you for the excellent presentation.
I found that using a half lap joint makes your design that much stronger. I have seen many designs on youtube and I can tell you that yours is superior.
Nice! Thanks for the comment… that’s one of my first videos.
Take lines and attach them to the ground and pull your lines tighter. A little loose and the posts appear not very stable.
I'm surprised that you don't use a lag bolt to hold the cross member to the base. I understand the theory of the ropes pulling it the other way, but after time when the wood dries and shrinks, I would think this would be an issue.
if you want to make concrete, do a 1 to 3 mix. 1 part cement, 3 parts of sand with stones. That is already a strong mix. For this purpose it would be ok to use 1 to 5.
Oh my god that proporty you are on is just down right beautifull. I wish it was mine!
I cringed watching you place your thumb on the circ saw guide!!! Have you never had a saw 'jump' when you are cutting? Or, you are not overly fond of your thumbs! There are guides to use for a straight cut.......just sayin'. I do like your plans however. Bigger than I need, but when my family was growing, I certainly could have filled it up!
He's wearing clothe gloves, it's okay!
what do you use to hold the cross section together? when you hammered them together did you put a wood screw in it? if so i missed that part..thanks
Jon, you have two lists, the material and cut list. Do I need to buy the wood on the cut list as well? I'm a little confused by this.
How far apart should I put the post? And what size drill bit to predrill the holes? The I hooks at Home Depot are on 1/2 inches wide. So, I purchased 1/4 in X 3-3/4 in. Is this going to be ok?
Thank you!
How far apart did you set your posts?
excellent !
That's cool the post
Does yours twist in the wind?
Do you have the part where your mixing the cement for the base ???
WOW, Came out really nice. Thanks for sharing. The HD video is really nice. If you have an HD Cam will the video be HD on youtube?, or do you have to have TH-cam turn the video into HD?
How do you like that Hitachi 8" slider?? I have herd great reviews about it. Looking to get one. Should I Look for the older version like yours? or is the new version pretty much the same.
Keep the vidz coming.
Thanks, Michael F.

How far between the two support frames?
This is a proyect I’d like to try to accomplish some day…, for now I’m busy with some of the projects found in Woody Hyezmar’s woodworking plans (they’re free)
Nice subtle plug there. lmao
Did you use glue or anything else to secure the cross bar to the main pole?
No glue
hello sir, nic project. Can I ask you if you buried the post in concrete or you raised with some metal support?
can't find cut descriptions on web page or the link in video. be nice if you out a link for the cuts....
+Scott Calder we're working on the website now it should be up mid week next week thanks for the heads up
Scott...here's the link to the clothesline cut list: jonpeters.com/how-to-make-build-a-clothesline/
And how you make wood waterproof and not decompose by time and rain?
L. V. - wood sealer!
How deep underground would this need to be buried?
About 3 feet
It's cool
You scare me c with that thumb so close to the saw
Well dang. We don't have all those saws. I was hoping for an impossible video I guess. Lol.
Missi R me either...but...I got some chisels at harbor freight and a hand saw. take me a lot longer but I can get her done I think. a really nice summer job I think.
Missi R also...these days u.can.rent them
Very nice, i am gonna get my husband to maek one for me(;
This is to much for me i am a female to much work for me and I have the tools is there an easier way
this lumber probably costs 20-50 dollars right now lol.
But think how much you might save using free "solar". Lol
Yeah very true@@sherip1270
Well you didn't show how you attach the wire line. Lol.
I'm sure this was great for someone used to woodworking. For the unexperienced, it was way too difficult.
I'm a granny and have only watched others use power tools, but I would try this. I just need someone to move the heavy 4x4s for me. ;) You just have to believe in yourself and try. All these things could be done with a hand saw, a cheap miter box, a hammer, ruler and or tape measure. I bet you might have neighbors who might even loan you the tools if you invite then over for a cook out. :)
Sounds like your battery powered saw is dying.
