I learned it at camp. and what you do is there are a whole bunch of people and they each hold a rope. the ropes are short and have knots on each end. each person holds one knot in each hand.. once everybody is ready everybody goes around in a circle around the barrel. and you can pull people to the barrel but you cannot trip or physically touch them to make them touch the barrel. each person who touches the barrel in any way, or lets go of the rope, is out. and you go ’til last person standing. what’s the name of this game?

how do you finish off a barrel clasp (jewelry making) without having any slack in the string.?

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

even if you knot off the string as close to the opening in the clasp as you can, when it slides into the barrel to be hidden you still end up with 1/4″ or so slack in the necklace. Any ideas?

How to Tie a Triple Barrel Knot by TIAT

Friday, January 8th, 2010


Ashley’s Book of Knots describes the Triple Barrel Knot as merely one from of variety of double looped knots. Still, I feel the simple elegance of this knots design deserves far more specific attention, and so I’m showing it here.

Barrel Racing Equipment

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

Having the right equipment in sports is important not only for winning, but to remain safe. You wouldn’t play football without a helmet and proper padding or box without gloves and mouth guards. Barrel racing is no different. Having the proper equipment keeps you and your horse safe and performing to the best of your abilities.

Your barrel saddle is the most important piece of equipment. Without a proper fitting saddle, you and your horse can become sore. Make sure you use a saddle that fits your horse’s back and your seat correctly.
