by a country mile, the best explanation and demonstration of this skill I have ever seen.  I have tried this without much success, thank you for passing along an awesome bushcraft skill.

Great video Larnie, you're a great teacher and thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Thanks for the info. Your way is easier than another way I have seen. The twist and rotate method I have seen before, but rolling it on your knee is much faster and does the same thing. Very handy skill to have. Thanks again. you teach me something with every video.

I dig your mellow tone brother. If you ever need a hand give a holler. God go with you always.

Lonnie, I make my own traditional bowstrings.  Your hand twist demo is exactly the way I twist up a "Flemish Twist" bowstring.  Cool to know...

Am reviewing all your bark video's as I am planning on making a spruce bark basket and sew it with either spruce roots or the willow bark you have shown. Can't find a basket I like in town so here goes, will give it a try. Planning ahead for spring so I am ready when the trees are, all the best.
