A list of useful knot links A list of downloadable knot guides and resources Diagonal Figure-of-eight Filipino Japanese ... Square A lashing is a means of fastening two poles (or spars) together. There are many lashings, each of which is designed to do a particular job depending upon what use you put the poles to. Lashings form a very important part of pioneering and if you wish to construct any pioneering project you will need to have tried and practiced at least the first three lashings on the list. It is important that you choose the correct lashing for the job. Look at the angle the poles cross. Are they touching each other? Where will the strain be on the poles? What are you using the poles for? What type and length of rope will you need?

Extractions: Jump to content Past Presidents The International Guild of Knot Tyers (IGKT) is an association of people with interests in knots and knotting techniques of all kinds. We have over a thousand members world-wide, from all walks of life, including academics, surgeons, sailors, sportsmen and women, scouters, magicians, farmers, miners and accountants. Membership is open to anyone interested in knotting (whether expert or simply hoping to learn from others). th The Council have decided that the Guild AGM in will take place in the USA - a venue has not yet been decided. Thereafter the AGM will alternate between the UK and the USA. For we are looking for suggestions for a UK venue which must have good transport links and should be readily accessible to all UK and overseas members. Broadly speaking, Central England would be the area of choice. Please write to or email the Secretar y with any suggestions.

Untying The Gordian Knot
In gratitude, Gordius dedicated his ox cart to Zeus, tying it up with a highly intricate knot - the Gordian knot. Another oracle or maybe the same one,
http://www.maa.org/devlin/devlin_9_01.html

Extractions: September 2001 One day, according to ancient Greek legend, a poor peasant called Gordius arrived with his wife in a public square of Phrygia in an ox cart. As chance would have it, so the legend continues, an oracle had previously informed the populace that their future king would come into town riding in a wagon. Seeing Gordius, therefore, the people made him king. In gratitude, Gordius dedicated his ox cart to Zeus, tying it up with a highly intricate knot - - the Gordian knot. Another oracle or maybe the same one, the legend is not specific, but oracles are plentiful in Greek mythology foretold that the person who untied the knot would rule all of Asia. The problem of untying the Gordian knot resisted all attempted solutions until the year 333 B.C., when Alexander the Great not known for his lack of ambition when it came to ruling Asia cut through it with a sword. "Cheat!" you might cry. And although you might have been unwise to have pointed it out in Alexander's presence, his method did seem to go against the spirit of the problem. Surely, the challenge was to solve the puzzle solely by manipulating the knot, not by cutting it. But wait a minute. Alexander was no dummy. As a former student of Aristotle, he would have been no stranger to logical puzzles. After all, the ancient Greek problem of squaring the circle is easy to solve if you do not restrict yourself to the stipulated tools of ruler and compass. Today we know that the circle-squaring problem as posed by the Greeks is indeed unsolvable. Using ruler and compass you cannot construct a square with the same area as a given circle. Perhaps Alexander was able to see that the Gordian knot could not be untied simply by manipulating the rope.

Human Knot - Description Of Icebreaker, Name Game, & Team Building Activity
Feb 15, 2004 Human knot is a getto-know-you icebreaker and initial activity for a group which is learning about one another and how to work together.
http://wilderdom.com/games/descriptions/HumanKnot.html

Extractions: 15 Feb 2004 Human Knot Equipment: None. Time: ~15-20 minutes Brief Description : Standing in a circle, group members reach across and shake hands - use hand connecting to a different person. The group then tries to unravel the "human knot" by unthreading their bodies without letting go of each other people's hands. How to Run a Human Knot Session Facilitator notes Links to other descriptions Be aware that the activity involves close physical proximity and touch potentially in sensitive places! It can be used as a first activity in an adventurous program with volunteers (e.g., the start of an Outward Bound program). However, if the program is less adventurous, or group members potentially will have significant problems with such proximity, e.g., due to culture, or social or psychological problems, then Human Knot could be introduced later in a program. Ideal group size is approximately 10, but it can be done with anywhere from about 7 to 16. Much higher or lower and the task doesn't really work. The more in a group, the more difficult the task, partly because of the complexity, and partly because there is physically less room to move.

http://www.apparent-wind.com/knots/bowline/

Extractions: The bowline is an exceptionally versatile knot. It is quick to tie (once you practice), it doesn't slip and it doesn't jam. It can be used to attach jib sheets to the jib's clew. It is a fast way to make a loop, and it can even be used to tie two lines together, though a double sheet hitch is probably preferred. The standing part forms "The Tree"
The Geometry Junkyard: Knot Theory
A page of links on geometric questions arising from knot embeddings.
http://www.ics.uci.edu/~eppstein/junkyard/knot.html

Extractions: Knot Theory There is of course an enormous body of work on knot invariants, the 3-manifold topology of knot complements , connections between knot theory and statistical mechanics, etc. I am instead interested here primarily in geometric questions arising from knot embeddings. Atlas of oriented knots and links , Corinne Cerf extends previous lists of all small knots and links, to allow each component of the link to be marked by an orientation. Borromean rings don't exist . Geoff Mess relates a proof that the Borromean ring configuration (in which three loops are tangled together but no pair is linked) can not be formed out of circles. Dan Asimov discusses some related higher dimensional questions. Matthew Cook conjectures the converse Are Borromean links so rare? S. Javan relates the history of the links and describes various generalizations with more than three rings. For more history and symbolism of the Borromean rings, see Peter Cromwell's web site A Brunnian link . Cutting any one of five links allows the remaining four to be disconnected from each other, so this is in some sense a generalization of the Borromean rings. However since each pair of links crosses four times, it can't be drawn with circles. Colinear points on knots Greg Kuperberg shows that a non-trivial knot or link in R necessarily has four colinear points.

Knots Versus Miles Per Hour
Sep 23, 2010 knots is how the speed of aircraft and boats is measured. Both miles per hour and knots is a speed which is the number of units of distance
http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/k-12/WindTunnel/Activities/knots_vs_mph.html

Extractions: 1 mph =1 mile per hour = 5280 feet per hour For example, if a train is moving at 50 mph on a track, how would you represent this speed in knots (even though trains are not usually represented in knots)? To do this problem easily, one can multiply the number of miles per hour that the train is moving by the number of feet per hour that = 1 mph. this converts the speed to a distance traveled in one hour.

A creature of tension, it exists to be stretched between opposing forces. It is a highly evolved tool which, in its myriad sizes, materials, and constructions, can meet every sort of rigging need. Limitations are likely to be on the part of the user; it is for us to develop skill appropriate to the tool. [ , p 1] Only fourteen knots are required for your membership test. They have been selected to provide a common set of tools for all members, and these tools will be sufficient for most rigging. You should be able to tie all of these knots as easily as you tie your shoes; lives may depend on your ability to tie them when you're tired, hungry, cold, confused, and in darkness. Learn, practice, and master these knots. Learning to tie knots from printed material is not easy; get personal instruction from a member with vertical experience if you can. Animated images on the Internet are also helpful.
