An easy way to tighten a laundry rope!

An easy way to tighten a laundry rope using a figure 8 knot.

[@tiodeniz]

secured the both ends of the rope with this knot. Worked wonders. thank you.

[@burtreynolds6163]

This is the best, simplest method of tightening any line! I've used it countless times in countless situations. Thank you!!

[@Spencer-c2c]

This is awesome; better, quick, and easier. simpler than the other videos pertaining to clotheslines. Thanks a lot, mate.

[@martinh8784]

Thank you so much for sharing this life hack! I nearly broke my fingers yesterday trying to get tension on my washing line - with your advise it was a brezze today! Most appreciated!

[@aleshamahon]

And that breeze would have dried them quicker 😀

[@brendon2259]

Thankyou very much for sharing this. Something so simple and easy to do and yet I didn't have a clue on what know to use. So again, thankyou

[@Liv2Pnt]

This helped me more than other video I've found! I just got 3 clotheslines hung! Thank you so much!

[@mortimerwright4826]

Honestly so helpful. So straight to the point

[@Akki-bhau]

Works like a charm. Thanks

[@benweston5755]

Simple, easy, just helped me tie up my closeline, cheers 👍👍

[@anubhavdutta9557]

Very useful video.. helped me to tie similar stuff with this same technique

[@afterthestorm221]

I think this is called a compound trucker's knot. Works very well for my laundry line! Thanks!

[@writerandartist]

Simple and elegant. Thank you! Do you have another video for joining two rope ends to make a loop? I'm setting up a loop with pulleys for my bird feeders, but I don't know how to join the two ends elegantly.

[@jelenc-blaz]

If you have a three strand rope you can join the two ends with a (so called) long splice (there are videos on youtube on how to do it). It is a great idea for a video, because the long splice is a quite difficult thing to learn. The other option would be to find a very non-bulky knot to join the two end, but I at the moment I don't have a good candidate.

[@DeeB424]

No nonsense HELPFUL instruction. THANK YOU! ! !

[@muskansiddikee2171]

Thank you I just used this hack it's so stable and easy.

[@khuramnasar1905]

Omfg..thank you thank you thank you.. seriously.... I cut line a bit too short and I couldnt get my normal knot in. This will work. What a life saver

[@007mmueller]

Thanks for the video. I used it to successfully pull a fence post into proper position ... now, is there a trick to loosening this knot or is cutting the rope the only way?

[@stephanddd]

If you untie the other side of the rope (the one we never see in the video), it would remove the tension. Then untie the safety knot (the extra half hitch at the end, assuming you tied it). Now you should be able to pull on the tail and the line will slide out of the figure eight. Then untie the figure eight.

[@stephanddd]

PS - for the scenario you mention (pulling out / adjusting a fence post), look up the icicle hitch, pipe hitch, or sailor's gripping hitch. They're all somewhat similar and will all work best to pull out a rod stuck in the ground. They can be untied effortlessly.

[@flesz_]

is it easy to open too?

[@Zaheer.Rashid]

Thanks man. Really helpful gona use this method.

[@ZSilver55]

Just what i needed AWESOME!

[@narendrarajput5545]

Worked best for me ,thanks

[@wotcherfaz]

Um, once you tightened it so far that the knot reaches the ring, it looks like you can't tighten it any more even if the rope starts to stretch over time, or due to weight of clothes etc. So, um, can you show us how easy it is to loosen that knot so you can do a new one that eliminates the slack?

[@msaleem70]

Very nice idea, but How to lose this knot ?

[@wotcherfaz]

@ISmellLikeBeefandCheese I believe you. I am just wondering what you do a month later when the rope has s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d due to the weight of a lot of wet clothes on the line... I use the taut line hitch for my washing lines exactly for that reason - so I can retighten over time. PS If you put one at each end, it saves a bit of walking if its a long line.

[@shonahotson9140]

Very helpful for setting up but how easy to remove?? I have a shared garden and need to set up and remove line each time of use.

[@kevin.afton_]

Who cares, you cut it off.

[@losfromla1480]

Use a hitch knot instead

[@pradeepbabu9737]

Thank you for sharing such an useful video...

[@dimitarmetodiev2877]

Looks awesome, but can it be untied after ?

[@roxyu3384]

nope... only with sissors

[@tarikomar2982]

Can i do it with a metal rope/wire ?

[@andrewdelfino9106]

[@angelohanna544]

Thanks for the video, I was wondering what is the material of the rope or the reference? I am looking for one like that and it seems good! Thank you

[@jelenc-blaz]

It's a paracord, such as: www.helikon-tex.com/en_eur/cd-pc1-nl-550-paracord-100ft.html

[@UneQ007]

Hello, can I do with wire ?

[@bbjj1918]

I think not, the wire is not flexible enough.

[@dr.purvipatel9537]

Worked for me....

[@machonsote918]

Don't even try to untie it.........if you make a mistake.....you just lost a piece of rope.

[@StevenSiew2]

Now how the hell do you untie it? Can you come up with a procedure to tie it and unite it easily?

[@losfromla1480]

No. Use a hitch when you need to do that

[@arlolockheart]

Legit.

[@dikshasart3568]

Wow 😮

[@hypemind612]

Truckers hitch ...

[@mrrustygray]

Ok. Now untie it.

[@GnosticCushite]
