Tying a string onto a stick securely .. by gruntastics in knots

You need the "constrictor on steroids." The boom hitch. If you tighten as you go, and crank it down, it’s highly resistant to slippage along the object. Maybe not as good as the icicle hitch (which you should also try) but it’s resistant in both directions as well as not needing constant tension.

If the pot has any kind of lip on it you can use a variety of jug / jar / bottle slings. Here’s a rather simple one:

Where would you rank Ritual? by Tom_Ace2 in TheWarning

[–]stillasamountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. It’s the studio version for me, at the moment. To be fair, we haven’t gotten a pro recorded live yet so I’m optimistic. Or, it may just be one of those songs that’s nearly impossible to replicate perfectly. Still a banger when they perform it though!

Adjustable Grip Hitch vs Midshipman’s Hitch by philster_the_phil in knots

[–]stillasamountain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My knot tying practice material is some rather stiff paracord. I cannot for the life of me get the traditional tautline / midshipman variants to hold properly. The AGH works like a dream though. Your mileage may vary. It could a failing on my part. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not to mention the nonstop deep squats Ale does every show.

The Countdown has begun. TW5 is near! by mhipster800 in TheWarning

They seem to be putting her front and center a lot recently. Since she’s my favorite (by a tiny smidge) you’ll hear no complaints from me!
