Video Transcription

anyone this is Mitch with a native survival school today when it go over the tripod lash stay tuned if possible elevate your workspace makes the job easier I'm a bundle of rope about 30 feet more than enough I'm gonna start with two half hitches many knots can be used to start a wash like a clove hitch constrictor many knots so two half hitches nice and tight so the first task just a wraparound I don't want to be too tight just snug why nots to be nice and neat a neat not or a neat lash there's one that's going to be efficient and work properly as you go four to five times around next job is to do frapping so lashing is going around two piece frapping it's going around the rope now frapping you want to be very tight also get a couple on there everything organized and neat side by side then I start applying some pressure I'm going to do that until this gap in between these two poles is filled nice and tight this is what creates a little pocket a little hinge to hold this pole it's what gets rid of shaking us a wobbly tripod this usually from it not being wrapped properly so you lay them side by side until you fill that void just like that again nice tight frap side by side little top of the piece make sure everything's lined up okay I'm gonna just finish off with a clove hitch at the end and go into a constrictor modification it's an easy not I've shown in the past and videos okay that's my constructor now I have some extra cordage I'm going to just wrap it around this one pull basically just to lose it not going to cut it off then I get at the end I simply put my finger under a wrap then I go under it three times that's all

run it all up not a big deal tighten it down
