If you split the dowel about 3/4" you can put in a wedge and drive it in. The wedge will spread the dowel inside the hole as it goes in and you don't need the screw. If you put some oil in the hole it will also swell the dowel and hole and last a long time. Great vid! Not trying to tell you how to do it but I seen that done in another vid and tried it. It works great.
Thank you. That is wonderful to see. I never knew about this method. This is a much more approachable method than many of the others out there. Thanks again!
Interesting, and thanks. This is an interesting method. According to some authorities some of our collective ancestors while moving into what is now Europe about70,000 years ago had string and rope-making capabilities. String making might eventually lead to fabric making. I've seen photos of small female ceramic clay figures wearing primitive bras. Soft fabric underwear leading to other items, socks perhaps? A progression of luxury items then?
Good comment! Indeed, rope making facilities were made very long. The Chatham ropewalk for example was one of the longest buildings built for a long time. They made 1000 foot rope! Mark
I am impressed by the sharpness of that knife and the expertise of the tool user! Fascinating! Do you have knowledge of when and where this tool and technique were used? It seems such a simple tool yet it produces one of the most universally needed and used items, cord or rope. Possibly one of humanity’s first great inventions!
I use a similar method but on a much longer base when I’m teaching this to the scouts. Also, with a longer base, I’m able to fold the twine two or three times to make much heavier ropes. Sometimes I’ll even twist three or four ropes into a cable.
Very interesting we have that here in Portugal at Vila Franca De Xira city it is used to make cordage for the horse ropes because this rope ia a softh rope
En una región de Colombia se le conoce a este instrumento como torno, taraba o tarabita aunque estos últimos ahora se usan para las canastillas de los cables aéreos, tambien conocidas Como garruchas. Esa canastilla colgante lo asocian nombres de herramientas manuales
Thank you for the video. I’d like more information on the three and four strand options and the two attachment points. When you using to attachment points do you just attach them and then use the club to spin and then once the Rope is tied combined the strands and remove the second attachment point and then spin counterclockwise?
Neat video. I have a couple of questions: 1. Would this tool be "one size fits all", for different widths of twine? 2. What is your advice on the number of turns clockwise and counterclockwise? Should they be roughly the same?
Dude. You have a drill. Attached a metal loop into your drill like a bit, and use that to twist your twine to make the rope. No need for your primitive tool. Sorry.
They probably have a proper rope making machine, too. Your comment speaks of ignorance as this video is about a tool. And this tool needs no power or electricity other than what you provide, that's something most modern drills can not provide. It is also quiet. And there is tremendous beauty in simplicity
@@georgesedeno7891I wasn't belittling you. Ignorance, as in needing education, and as I intended it, is not an insult. I was pointing out that just because you have a tool doesn't make it the best or only method to get a job done. Your open mindedness is also indicated in how you respond to criticism (also not a negative or insult).

Мастер - просто ОГОНЬ ! Столяр 2 - го разряда , не более : инструментарий это ещё не всё ...
I think this could make an interesting addition to Corporals Corner .... Id love to see a bush craft of this.
Very interesting. I've seen old photos of waterfront rope making sheds, now I know how it was done and why the buildings where so long. Thank you

wonderful video 👍🙏
Instead of using masking tape, could just tie off the end with whipping with the same twine.. thanks for the vid, now I understand better
Very vocational educational,
very well explained. like it
Wow, very interesting! I guess I would be in trouble if I wanted to end up with a 100’ rope !
Thanks! I am going to try this out.

Good video and very interesting
Excelente obrigado 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤝👍
He made the spinning device more complicated than it should be. All you is a screw in hole slightly larger than the screw.
Think you i'm firs like in this video 😁👍
Doubling, twisting and tripling is great, but you should have increased tension in the original cord used.
Does this technique work with paracord?
where are you from? very interesting accent
Good
Those drill bits work better slower.
Hugs
Wet and stretch till dry .
For both to be 3/4" that was a lot of shaving
genius
Wot jeans are those ffs i cant find anything like that where i live.
K is silent

Thanks! I decided to go to Home Depot instead.
Please don’t stick your tools into the dirt when you are done using them.

I can make a rope with jungle long grass without using any tools in emergency and it is stronger enough for use.
Gee you need to learn about sharpening a bit.
Try less knife and more sand paper...that looks ridiculous and not sade

As mentioned, your comment is rather ignorant. Many people enjoy learning about traditional tools and methods. And yes, beauty in simplicity.
@@TomeOfKnowledge74 hey Tommy-go-figure...your comment is rather naive and uninformed, much more ignorant than any page of "tome" you deem to possess.
