The timber hitch is the knot used to tie classical guitar strings onto the bridge of the guitar. It can also be used to attach nylon or gut banjo strings to antique style tailpieces.
Well, I did not know that. Also when you think how much tension there is on a guitar string, it certainly hold up well!! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. I have added this to the description section.
I will never forget how this knot saved a collogue of mine from losing his job. he had tied a 'polish-rod' to the pipe rack of the tool truck and it slipped out of his knot landing in the road, I was following in a tank truck and saw the polish rod in the road I straddled the polish rod and tied it to the front bumper using the timber hitch so that it drug under the truck the few miles to the next location. The crew chief noticed the missing polish rod, that it did not make it with us and threatened to fire the crewman for his mistake. We were all glad I knew the timber hitch that day
I'e used this one lots for twitching logs with my tractor (well lawn tractor and maybe more like bushes...lol)...but seriously I did learn and used this long before I heard of the cable chokers used in skidders.
Thank you for all your tuto. I am looking for a weaving knot and I would like to send you a picture to tell me if you have a name or know how to do it. Best regards.
@@Lacaro971 Yes, I see what you have posted and it is very interesting. I personally have never seen that before, but maybe someone will see it and make a comment over the next couple of days.....................
You didn't describe WHY it is a timber hitch. Specifically, you didn't describe the way that the timber-hitch, among the venerable list of hitches, is to be used for hauling large pieces of timber without injury. Don't break your kids and pets next time, billets.

*Remote Release Lift Hitch* have you seen or tried this one yet? th-cam.com/video/4q-WPaCQAZs/w-d-xo.html
If one ties a figure of 8 knot and rap the end round again makes a timber hitch.
