JRB demonstrates a way to configure a Blake's Hitch to create a tensioning device with 2:1 mechanical advantage using nothing but a single length of cord or rope. This is a handy device for creating a simple adjustable bridge.

Great video, clear and concise, thanks. I'm looking forward to the adjustable bridge. 👍

Thx Phil. When I self filmed the video "Non mechanical adjustable bridge" 2 yrs ago, I learned how difficult it is to show knot tying details in that kind of a demonstration. I prefer to have a reference video like this which I can refer to for the details.

Going to try it with paracord..

I've been using the 523"s on my double bridge but may try this in the future.

@jrbtc 3 месяца назад

I only use this on one bridge, the short bridge. I will publish the details as soon as I can

@mikedranginis8677 3 месяца назад

Welp... Time to adjust the bridge again! Swapped to a Blake's used on both and have been liking the more compact build so far. Will definitely be giving this a try! The function of the tag end feels similar to the loop that you had with the first adjustable bridge using a Blake's in that you use the loop to shorten while you tug on the moving strand of the bridge to lengthen. However, this build here creates a much more stable approach to fashioning the Blake's to whatever delta used which the first design did well but doesn't seem as good as this build. Looking forward to trying it! Well done!

Mike, thx. I will follow up asap on how I am integrating the two bridges.

You are a knot creator! ❤

@jrbtc 3 месяца назад

This is just a creative application. But thanks

@macman231 3 месяца назад

On that final tag end with the stopper knot, could you instead bend it down and tie a fishermens on the loop segment that doesn't move for a more secure stopper setup? Or would that interfere with the blakes hitch function? It just seems like that stopper knot is kinda hanging out there loose to me is all.

@jrbtc 3 месяца назад

You could. It would be hard to get it optimally slack free. It also creates more bulk. I recommend building one of these and testing it out. That's what I have been doing for the last 4 months. It's rock solid.

@macman231 3 месяца назад

@@jrbtc Gotcha, thanks for the reply I'll give it a try, but I have to respectfully disagree that it would create more bulk since you are simply tying the same stopper knot just around a line instead of it hanging out in the breeze, now it would be in line with the rest of the blakes hitch but I of course know a standard blakes hitch always has that stopper knot hanging out in the breeze :-)

After 15 years of saving lives around the world, I'm thr last person that is going to pull your leg as far as the use of some hitch. Especially when dealing with hundreds of feet of descending and ascending . But hey you take care. There will not be another....

Your experience is sincerely appreciated. I am not sure I understood what you meant with the comment though. This is a tensioning device... and there are many applications for it. I needed to show how to build it before using it.
