What a treat! Many years ago, at a medieval living history event, I took part in a rope-making class that used a much smaller, wooden version of a device very like this. And though the ropes we made were only about a foot long, it was still an amazing process to witness. I do hope you and Edward can get together to make some more detailed videos of making another rope. Thanks!

Very nice. I'll look forward to watching more of this machine. I just found out that Leoflex-X synthetic line isn't being made anymore, and that saddened me tremendously since it was the only line that looked and felt like hemp rope that'd been tarred a time or two. I really needed a pickmeup, so I'm glad you posted this!

@@KnottingKnots Hempex is one brand, but Leoflex-X is altogether different. Most fake hemp ropes look bright and shiny, like new hemp rope would. This is awful for any ship trying to look proper, especially museum vessels that would historically used hemp ropes that had been blackened with tar. Leoflex-X was the only synthetic line that actually looked like tarred hemp lines, and it was dreamy to use, as well. America Rope & Tar website is the only supplier I've been able to find, but maybe you can find some over your way since the manufacturer is over there, too. Heck, if enough of us pitch a fit, maybe they'll continue making it?

@@KnottingKnots Leoflex-X was developed in the Netherlands by Touwfabrick G. van der Lee, at the request of the Dutch ship Batavia who wanted ropes that looked like proper ropes, not the shiny beige that most synthetic hemp lines are. Damn shame that such a great resource is gone, but maybe we can all sign a petition and bring it back.

@@Gaz9000 Sorry, I do not mean to be awkward in any way, just that with over 70K subs, it takes a lot of effort to keep up with all interactions. You will often find that many people use Paracord for decorative knotwork, mainly due to the colours you can get. If however, you are wanting to use more traditional cordage, then you really want a hard lay cord. If you think about hard lay cordage like a tape measure, the harder the lay, the more the cordage will stand out before it droops downward. (Did that make sense?) Bit like a tape measure of quality, the further is can be extended before it drops downward. Also with harder lay cord, you will feel that it is firmer and holds a knot better (looks sexier when tied). What country are you in, as I may be able to direct you to suppliers of quality cordage?

@@Gaz9000 The best cordage for decorative knotwork I find is, cotton or polished hemp, the latter being very difficult to get hold of. I would say that the nearest supplier to you is Sue Pennison in the UK or Edward De Witt in Belgium. They are both on FB and they both do superb cordage. If you do make contact with them, just tell them what you are thinking of making and they can advise on best size cordage.
