Excellent video, Dan. Simplistic in application, yet very functional and a useful tool. I can easily see how to make an even better home tool by using dowel rod and pre dtilled screws, washers, and nuts.

if you flat beat your nail so it has 2 flats, set the nail for the flats to run parallel to the wood grains, like an old fashioned cut nail, and it'll be far less likely to split out your wood

Woooow, also you could totally use that spinner as a baton. I recently discovered that sisal twine takes in LOADS of natural dyes when you're working in that. I've got samples of army green, rusty scarlet, lustrous pearly pale blue, wine reddish purple, staghorn sumac coral, its NUTS. And they all come out with a dull shine. Whatever your dye is, add the general alum/cream of tartar and if you're doing an iron shift dye like army/olive green add iron tablets, if you're doing cabbage blue or using purple potatoes baking soda will make the blue color, same with tumeric scarlet. Basically any natural purple will shift to blue either with age or with baking soda. For some reason in addition to sisal producing a luster tone milkweed fiber will do the same if you catch it at the right point after its died. If your harvested bast fiber feels papery, wirey, and somewhat like raffia its just right to get that shine on it. Not as strong as it could be. But if you're weaving it will do fine for a nice pale weft that holds a color. You can dye lighter colored natural cordage this way too but its hit or miss whether or not the color will show up. Dogbane doesn't hold cool colors well but it will hold wine red or dark gold. Reminds me I've got to brave the rain and yuck to harvest more of it. Its like a 45 min walk in shitty weather, and we've gotten a lot of rain rn.

I was taught how to make cordage with natural fibers using the reverse wrap method but I couldn’t imagine doing that for a whole day to get rope out of it instead of just cordage (I mean maybe if my life depended on it I could) this is freaking genius and super time and energy conserving. I absolutely love your videos brother, they always provide great tips, tricks, and info. God Bless and keep on doing what you do, you got the gift haha

If you start out by turning your nail point up and with the hammer side of your ax, hammer the tip of the nail, it will flatten out the point slightly and it will not split the wood. I'll be wanting to see you use this in future :)

To prevent the wood splitting dull the nail point first by tapping it with the flat of the axe head.

If you wanted to improve that rope you'd already made, you could try coating it in some oil (to try to stop water from soaking into it and rotting it from the inside) and running it through a candle to burn off the loose fibers, right?

isn't that tri-strand rope only going to be as strong as 2 strand though, because the 3rd strand is just doubled up with itself? It's like making cordage with one bundled of twisted fibers 2x as thick as the other- the cordage will still only be as strong as the weaker side. Or am I confused here?

Conor Gober that was likely a rope walk and spinner set. That's how they made professional, industrial rope for rigging and other use. This is likely a method you'd find in settlements or tribe areas. A rope walk will make stronger, or more stable rope, because each core is counter spun. Using this method one core will always be out of phase and won't transfer load equally as the other two. But for most applications, that's not a concern.
