Thanks Mabel, enjoying the things you do is essential!

I hardly ever watch videos longer than 10 minutes but this one was a real treat. Thank you very, very much. Yo casi nunca veo videos de más de 10 minutos pero este fue una verdadera delicia. Muchas, muchas gracias.

What an instructive Joy!

Love the medieval whipping! 😜

That Sailors whipping knot is awesome how the end disappears when you snug up the end. Great work.

That was impressive thanks for posting enjoyed the content and the sound track blended as well as your splice did !

I really dig the tarred beeswax treatment on the whipping twine:) This is a really cool project, now I want to make one!

Beautiful work as always. You can tell it's still winter in Finland... you have on shoes! ;-)

Very nicely done. Thank you for sharing.

A recipe for a rope belt: "Take a fathom of a hemp rope, A yard of a flax whipping twine And a drachm of a tarred wax..." ;D

Great video - easy to follow. Would love to see a video on how you make the swedish fid.

Very nice work !

Learned two things from you. Never seen a whipping done with a fid. Very good. I’ve always used a needle. Tarred beeswax, that’s new to me. Will have to try and find some. Thanks

Just because we haven't found any traces of medieval masking tape, it doesn't prove that it wouldn't have existed! 😅

Thanks for sharing your amazing skills and craft. It's inspiring. What would you recommend for making it adjustable if you wanted to use it with a heavy coat and without?

My every day rope belt is longer and I tie it to fit.

Just love the simplicity and heritahe of this rope work. I was looking for a knot to end a railing rope for our pier. Was wondering the knot thats used on sea chest handle bolts.

where do I get the medieval masking tape at to whip the ends of my hemp rope?

@mikkosnellman

2 ай бұрын

Medieval masking tape is sold only on black market due to its rarity 😉

To tie a knot, sometimes you must first dismantle the rope.

Mikko when you say tarred beeswax what is the process for making that. I am sure I probably have the supplies to make it at home. LOL!

Bel lavoro @mikko snellman, ma dubito fortemente che i marinai del medioevo avessero a disposizione il nastro adesivo che hai utilizzato, sarebbe stato più opportuno utilizzare un cordino, non ti pare

As long as the end product is accurate, I don´t think that´s relevant...

Thanks once again, excellent sound track and I think I recognize the fid, another triple threat ;) If the phukko isn't medieval, I wonder what might be...very Franciscan, I'm thinking friar Tuck would have worn with pride though his would probably have been longer and had a wine skin hanging...

Yes, you might do a "Tuck model" :) The puukko is Finnish "Tommi" model from 1800´s.
