As a I clicked on the video I realized you would use something like a stick. But the "ah ha" moment was the adjustment you did when you had it roll. That was really cool. Thank you.

Wow the simplicity of some things lol Thank you so much! 😊👍

I've been using those tarps for decades - how did I never figure that out?! Thank You!!!

Now that's genuine thinking outside of the box... Great tip that'll certainly come in handy!

What a great memory jogger.I learned this many years ago but completely forgot about it. Thanks John clear and concise👍🏻

It's the little trick like this that can make all the difference in the field. I'd never seen this before and absolutely plan on keeping this in my back pocket. Thank you for sharing.

Great idea, John! Thanks for sharing your wisdom! Dane.

I love when simple meets practical! Nice tip! Thanks for posting.

We learnt these bush skills way back 50 years ago. Good to see someone out there spreading the word.

This method also saves time in the event you're setting up in bad weather etc. Cool trick! And breakdown is just as easy.

If your tarp doesn’t have grommets, you can put a small stone into the corner, tie the tarp end around it an secure it with a loop, then tighten it to a tree. Old Boy Scout stuff.

Wow! Thank you, thank you! 😀I will be using this right away on a 12 x 24 tarp. Terrific tip! A real Game changer, as I don’t see well and it’s over 100° outside today... not having to make all of those knots just saved me a lot of time in the hot sun. Thank you from Arizona! 👍 Blessings to you!

This makes so much sense I can't believe this is the first I've seen it! Definitely a "why didn't I think of that". Also, thank you for keeping it short and not insulting our intelligence like most youtubers by describing every detail we can plainly see in the video. THANKS, AGAIN!

@thereallycoolnameswereallt4587

Because it's a tip for people who didn't learn to tie any knots. Anyone who can tie two half hitches won't ever need this tip. And you use midshipman's hitches around your stakes to make it adjustable. The idea is to use fewer steps and make it less complicated. So, that's why I downvoted it. Not every innovation is genius. This one ins superfluous.

How well would a setup like this hold tho in windy conditions? I understand it provides the ability to move the tarp along the line but seems you could just wrap the line through each hole one time. That way it could still slide, just not as easily, but would hold in bad weather conditions

An added suggestion: buy yourself a bag of small marbles. These can be used for tarps that do not have grommets. Wrap the material around the marble then tie off with your line. Works great and you do not have to cut holes in your tarp.

Thanks for filming

I personally am a knotting fanatic, but to see a great tip such as this without knots is a cool thing. Still have to use cord though, so gets a thumbs up from me!

Although this is simply common sense, it's clearly stated, and executed, within an excellent video. My question is not only about this video, but this one is a fine example of what I see far too often, and don't grasp. There are 2% thumbs down, but no negativite comments, so what possible negative thoughts do people have on this??? I see no reason at all to down this one?

@JasperJanssen

3 жыл бұрын

KZread has overloaded the thumbs down. It doesn’t just mean “I hate this fucking video, it’s awful”, it also means “this may be a perfectly fine video but I’m not interested in this or anything like it, please don’t show me any more.” So if the algorithm is recommending your video to... well, anybody at all, really, you’re gonna collect thumbs down.

@ScoutPL

3 жыл бұрын

I like it and want to try it. The only negative I can see, and again, I have to try it, is that with no attachment through the inner grommets, will the tarp slip off due to wind, rain load, snow load, etc? I like the idea, and the adjustability part as well.

Woah. Impressive. Who knew such a simple trick could be so well demonstrated.
