Knot binding has always been one of those key outdoor skills that inexperienced people take for granted. An experienced outdoorsman, however, has had enough success and inability to know that there are right and wrong knots for certain jobs. A good knot can save lives when you are dealing with a survival situation by performing first aid, and when working on altitudes or water. But, you need to know how to tie it up. So make sure you know what to do with the rope the next time you head into the wild using this animated art hub - 3D app. With animation in 3 dimensions, our app will help you learn and make the knot easier. And we've also supported over 40 types of nodes in 16 categories- 2 Round Turns and 2 Half Hitch-Academic Knot-Anchor Bend-Ashley's Bend-Bachman Knot-Backhanded Hitch-Blimp Knot-Bowline Knot- Buntline Hitch - Canadian Figure-8 Hitch-Carrick Bend-Clinch Knot-Clove Hitch-Common Whip-Constritor Knot-Dagger-Dagger-Double Fisherman Knot-Double Overhand-Duncan Knot-Closed Backhand Hitch-Figure-8 Knot-Fire-es Knot-Fisherman's Figure-8 Hitch- Fisherman's Node-Flemish Bend- Grandma Knot-Knot-Half Hitch-Highwayman's Hitch-Hunter's Bend- Italian Hitch - Mast Hitch-Knot-Overhand Knot (Thumb Knot) - Prusik Knot Knot-Round Turn No. 2 Half Hitchi- Self- Tightening Half Hitch-Leaf Bend-One Carrick Bend-Surgeon Knot-Swing Hitch-Thief Knot-Timber Hitch- Two Half HitchesLearn is self-sufficient, then teach your family (especially your child) and possibly your neighbors. I promise that this is really useful and can save your life a few days (who knows) June 6, 2019 Version 1.4.3 - Improved user experience Is a fun and useful app that shows how to link many useful nodes. The node description is given in the process of binding each step. Animation of each step is well done and easy to follow. Be sure to have a short rope so that you can follow along. It's really fun. I really can't be too critical since it's free but would like to lock a few things in hope of improving the app:1. The use of the Case label displayed for each site is too small - the label to describe the use of each site is too small. Although real estate is limited, it would be Expand the label (i.e. the extension of vertical glass) so that not so necessary (if at all).2. Using Case text is displayed in the center, not at the beginning of the text - When you first see the text, you have to scroll to the beginning every time before you can read the entire text. This creates some unnecessary inconvenience for the user. The node list is limited - Creating a comfortable animation should be a lot of time when doing this part of the time. However, if you look at the list, most nodes are repeated and don't provide much overall. Clear instructions with large visual aids. My only dislike is like a small text box, only allowing two lines to show at a time. It would be preferable to show the whole text or even one or two lines. Ads along the bottom aren't a big distraction, but the buy-to-let-the-ad feature will be good, especially for those who bother with ads.

  • 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.

    Knots 101 Lunchtime mini-session What Will You Learn? 1. Knot Terminology 2. General Knot Information 3. Does Dressing Knots Matter? 4. Tail Lengths 5. Climbing Knots and Their Effect on Breaking Strength 6. Rappel Knots 1. Knot Terminology Knot vs. Hitch vs. Bend We’ve all heard terms like hitch or bend thrown around, but how are those different from a knot? ● Knot – a knot is tied in a rope or piece of webbing. ​ ● Hitch – a hitch connects a rope to another object like a carabiner or even another rope. ​ ● Bend – a bend is a knot that joins two ropes together. ​ What other terms should you know for this session? ● Bight – a bight is a section of rope between the ends. ​ ● Standing end – the standing end or part of the rope is the side that’s not being used during knot ​ tying. ● Working end – the working end or part of the rope is the side that is being used during knot ​ tying. ● Dressing - Knot dressing is the process of arranging a knot in such a way as to improve its ​ performance. Crossing or uncrossing the rope in a specific way, depending on the knot, can increase the knot's strength as well as reduce its jamming potential. ● Setting - The process of tightening it. Improper setting can cause certain knots to underperform. ​ Setting the knot is part of dressing the knot. 2. General Knot Information Relative knot strength, also called knot efficiency, is the breaking strength of a knotted rope in proportion to the breaking strength of the rope without the knot.
