Q A's Revenge Posted February 7, 2014 #1 Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) I've been keeping a note of these links for my own research but perhaps they are of interest to others. They are in no particular order. Please add your own links to this thread if you like.

wallyh Posted February 7, 2014 #2 Posted February 7, 2014 Thank you for posting the links - are you planning on building a ropewalk? I'm thinking of building one for my brother in law and myself. Wally
Q A's Revenge Posted February 7, 2014 Author #3 Posted February 7, 2014 Yes, as soon as my workshop is up and running I plan to make one. Probably something quite simple.
wallyh Posted February 8, 2014 #4 Posted February 8, 2014 Which of the ropewalk links are you leaning towards? I agree with you, simpler is usually better. Wally
Q A's Revenge Posted February 8, 2014 Author #5 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) Probably the first one in the Rope and Canvas blog. Edited February 9, 2014 by Q A's Revenge
wallyh Posted February 8, 2014 #6 Posted February 8, 2014 Another couple of questions, I see you have had about 122 views - has anyone built one of the ropewalks in those links? And if so what was their experience? Wally
