Great stacking of wood...everything is tight. However, the knot you called the "Trucker's Hitch" is really a slip knot or loop knot and can be difficult to undo when the time comes to do so. As a rigger for the U.S. Navy for many years, we get reprimanded for using such a knot. The true trucker's hitch is what I use to tension a load. It is tied by looping the free end of the rope over the bight of the rope, form a loop of the bight up and lock with a half hitch, lock again with another half hitch for safety, then pull down on the free end to tension the rope, tie off to secure.
@ilive4livemusic4 жыл бұрын
The first time I saw the trucker’s knot used was about 40 years ago when my father-in-law, a tobacco farmer, used it to tie down the fully loaded tobacco baskets for his trip to the tobacco market. I was blown away by how simple and secure they were. I have probably used that knot at least once a month ever since in all sorts of situations where I need something truly tight and secure. Such a cool knot, you feel like you’ve learned a magic trick it is so amazing.

Hi Great video, thanks. One tip - when you tighten the knot it's worth standing on the ground and pulling downwards by bending your knees. That way if the rope should break you'll just squat down. If you lean backwards to pull, especially when on the door cill, if it breaks you're going backwards towards a nasty spill. Hope that's useful. 🙂

Want to make sure I’m securing it properly
@RusticDavid4 жыл бұрын
Hi Sub all i can suggest is : roll two blankets into “bolsters “ and place them on the car roof one forward and one at the back this will level the curve of the roof , if the sheet is thinner than 12mm or half an inch I suggest you either cut it and transport it in the car or sandwich it between two thicker sheets,ok so now lay the sheet material on the roof it should be touching the blankets front and back and close to the roof in the middle,or open all the doors or windows and tie your ropes or straps through the car pull everything up tightly using a truckers knot or ratchet strap colse windows or doors check the load is secure before and during your journey good luck David btw check local laws before driving like this it may not be legal everywhere

Hi Samuraioodon , its a heavy long load , you must have a roof rack with at least 2 meters or 6 feet between the bars so there’s about a meter over hanging each end . Then everything depends on the roof rack being strong enough to hold the weight and it must be securely attached to your car . Don’t take any risks loosing a load on the road can be fatal for drivers behind you Splitting it into two journeys will lighten the load Be safe Best Wishes David

No self respecting truck driver would secure a load using that slip knot technique. The chances are, especially with larger diameter rope, that the slip knot will bind so tight that the only thing you can undo it with is a sharp knife. A proper truck driver's hitch is actually what seamen once called a sheepshank or a half-sheepshank. Done properly, once the tension is taken off the rope, the hitch will almost untie it's self.
@RusticDavid4 жыл бұрын
Thank you tombstone if you tie the loop correctly it will not slip closed ,from my time working on dive boats fishing boats and luxury yachts a sheep shank was used for shortening a line and as you say once the line was slack it would virtually open itself, i would be happy to learn another technique maybe you can direct me and others reading this to a video showing how to tie a load with a sheep shank as I cannot think how to use it for tying down a load Have a great week David u

@@RusticDavid gonna build a farm table via plans on ana white's page. i was ecstatic tho being able to get all the wood on the car w/o having to have/rent a truck. i simply cant justify the cost of having a truck since i would only use it every few months or so. thanks again for the vid--certainly wudnt have tried it w/o ur vid. i also ended up using, if im remembering right, a bowline hitch or knot or something along those lines to tie it
