Ashley's Stopper Knot or Oysterman's Stopper or ABOK # 526 Tying a "stopper knot" at the end of the rope can help prevent the end from slipping through the knot due to a heavy load or a series of jerks on the rope. To tie this knot, first tie a Slip Knot (picture 1), then bring the end of the rope back through the loop (pictures 2 and 3).

  • Volunteer Job Performance Requirements
    VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTER JOB PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS TASK BOOK TRAVIS COUNTY ESD 1 18300 PARK DR. JONESTOWN, TX. 78645 (512)267-3568 VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTER NAME:_______________________________ It is important for you to understand that just because your department head or evaluator signs off on the skills sheets does not mean that it is an automatic approval or assignment to a position. This Job Performance Requirement Task Books (Task Book) have been developed for various candidate levels within Travis County ESD 1. The Task Book lists the job performance requirements (JPRs) for the specific task in a format that allows a candidate to be trained and evaluated. Successful performance of all tasks, as observed and recorded by a qualified and approved evaluator, will result in the candidate's eligibility for operating in various positions within their scope of practice. To complete the performance evaluation period, the candidate must successfully complete the job performance requirements in sequence. Before a job performance evaluation can be taken, all requisite knowledge and skills must be satisfied. In addition, all relative task book evaluations must be checked off by a trained evaluator. It is the responsibility of the candidate to see that the task book is completed during an acceptable time frame. These JPRs serve as general guidelines. As such they are not intended to replace specific sequences of apparatus or equipment operation that may be outlined by manufacturer specifications. At all times, standard operating procedures will govern. The department, should have available for evaluators, a copy of manufacturer specifications and the department’s standard operational guidelines. The JPRs covered in this Task Book meet or exceed all NFPA published standards for this certification level at the time of this publication.

  • The Scrapboard Guide to Knots. Part One: a Bowline and Two Hitches
    http://www.angelfire.com/art/enchanter/scrapboardknots.pdf Version 2.2 The Scrapboard Guide to Knots. Apparently there are over 2,000 different knots recorded, which is obviously too many for most people to learn. What these pages will attempt to do is teach you seven major knots that should meet most of your needs. These knots are what I like to think of as “gateway knots” in that once you understand them you will also be familiar with a number of variations that will increase your options. Nine times out of ten you will find yourself using one of these knots or a variant. The best way to illustrate what I mean is to jump in and start learning some of these knots and their variations. Part One: A Bowline and Two Hitches. Round Turn and Two Half Hitches. A very simple and useful knot with a somewhat unwieldy name! The round turn with two half hitches can be used to attach a cord to post or another rope when the direction and frequency of strain is variable. The name describes exactly what it is. It can be tied when one end is under strain. If the running end passes under the turn when making the first half-hitch it becomes the Fisherman’s Bend (actually a hitch). The fisherman’s bend is used for applications such as attaching hawsers. It is a little stronger and more secure than the round turn and two half-hitches but harder to untie so do not use it unless the application really needs it.

  • Climbing Fences,, Ropes, Knots and Rope Making
    CLIMBING FENCES, ROPES, KNOTS AND ROPE MAKING TECHNIQUES Stolen from UK Indymedia - www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2006/07/346369.html?c=on#c152797 Many activists get arrested cutting through military fences and so get the extra charge of 'malicious mischief'. Using a ladder to climb fences is impracticable as you tend to get intercepted and charged for approaching a base with a ladder. You can buy 'telescopic-ladders' but they are very expensi ve so here is the cheapo solution. You can buy metal key -ring clips with chains for about a £1.50 from cornershops and newsagents. You can then clip the chains to fences to allow use as foothold and handholds. If the keyring clip is less than 7mm in diameter at it's thinnest - and most of them are - you can clip onto even the thin fences that they use at places like Faslane. Bolting a piece of flat wood to the chain means the foothold stands proud of the fence and makes it is easier and quicker for severa l people to use in the dark. These are pocket -sized / foot -sized so are easily concealed and only four are required to help the least fit activists easily climb an 8m fence, and are also cheap enough to be disposable in a rush. If you are very careful attaching it to the fence then you don't even set off the high-tech vibration sensors that military fences often utlise, at least until you start climbing. Make sure the wood you use is strong enough to take your bodyweight after drilling - also - test them once you've built them.

  • The Catshank
    69 fig. 1 The Catshank Similar to the Sheepshank in appearance and purpose. this also can be made in the center of a long rope without using the ends, which makes ir very prllctica.i for specific purposes. To form the Catshank, tie two Running Knots or simple Slip Knots a foot or more apan. Double the rope between them to form opposite bights as with the Sheepshank. Draw the bights through those opposite knots until the rope i:.: suitably :shortened (fig. 1). Then pull the knots tight by Ngging the main portions of the rope toward the ends. This final action gives an excellent Idea of the strength and resistance of the Catshank. fig. 2 70 The Dogshank With a rope where the ends are handy I this is a simple and effective TIE way of shortening it still more. You ... HERE begin with the customary opposite bights, taken in the center of the rope, like an elongated letter "5." Then simply tie one end to the bulge of the opposite hight, using a simple Overhand Knot (fig. 1). Tie the other end to its opposite bight in the same fashion. You can allow whatever length you want to the projecting ends, the actual shortening being done by the shank. REPEAT HERE fig. 1 Overhand Knot with Sheepshank This is the simplest and quickest of all rope shortenings, when using a rope with both ends available. Form a doubled bight in the center of the rope (in "S"~shape) and tie the triple strands in an ordinary Overhand Knot.

  • Pioneering Merit Badge Pamphlet Will Be Used Throughout the United States, Merit Badge Counselors Should Understand That Not Every Method Can Be Fully Described Here
    pioneering BoY SCoUTS oF AMERICA MERIT BADGE SERIES Pioneering Note to the Counselor Because this Pioneering merit badge pamphlet will be used throughout the United States, merit badge counselors should understand that not every method can be fully described here. Different parts of the country might use other names for a knot, a method, or a piece of equipment. Counselors may employ other methods described and illustrated in other Scouting literature. Some pioneering skills or methods called for in the requirements will take practice and time to master. Therefore, having multiple hands-on sessions to earn the merit badge is advisable. The term “demonstrate” in the requirements means just that—the Scout should show that he has learned the skill and can use it. Keep in mind that, because of equipment availability, parts of some requirements might have to be done at summer camp, at district or council events, or on a troop camp outing. In such cases, the person conducting the review and approving any partial completion must be approved to do so by the local council. The appearance of a finished project or structure is not as important as the correctness of individual knots and lashings. The project should be judged for its structural soundness, to determine if it was built to safely withstand the use for which it was intended. Only the approved designs shown in this pamphlet or other Boy Scouts of America literature are recommended. In earning this merit badge, the Scout has a chance to learn skills that will be useful in a wide variety of Scouting and non-Scouting activi- ties.
