New Website

[Grog]

I have recently uploaded a new website aimed at the arborist:
http://www.animatedknots.com/indexarborist.php
I always appreciate feedback, advice, suggestions and (yes) criticism.
If you have the time, please pass on your ideas.
Thanks - Grog

Looks interesting. I'll have to play around with it for a while.

pretty cool, the animation seemed quite thorough.

Wow , I no longer need to demonstrate knot tying repeatedly with a new trainee. Just let them practice while watchin the vid

Cool Grog

Thanks for the comments. Are there any knots I should add (or delete)?

 

[bwktreeserv]

Very cool!!!

 

[familytreeman]

It seemed indexed well enough, no real reason to delete anything

Adding more doesn't always hurt

(Unless you add 117 cabins to a passenger ship for more profits, then capsize the ship possibly due to its new center of gravity? ... but thats another story)

I didn't see the friction hitch with 3 hitches down from the right side, then 2 hitches above from the left

i climb on this 'modified prussik' and it has rolled out once, 48 years ago. not really a tautline (which also do not see), which as i learned it had all the hitches starting from the left.
i learned 5 knots for ctw and promptly forgot 2, so am not a knotsman by any means but i still wonder; Did you reinvent a wheel? http://arboristapps.co.uk/

Hi Guy:

Thanks for taking the time to write. I do deal with the Tautline but it is elsewhere on the site.

I hope that I have not just reinvented a wheel.
A lot of work underlies this website – the intention being to provide a useful service.
