Hastily Carry Objects Using the Carrier Knot – Knot of the Week HD

Do you find yourself ever needing to carry a large, round-ish object? The Carrier Knot is perfect for hastily carrying objects like bowls, bottles, tanks or other round objects. This week, Bryan shows you how you can quickly tie the Carrier Knot and be on your way with whatever object you've chosen.

I’ve been trying to use rexlace on my projects because I don’t have other plastic, resistant cords here, this is the only knot that held that terrible slippery line in place. Thank you!!!

You just saved my ass big time. I had a brittle 5 gallon plastic paint bucket full of sewer water. Every time I tried to move it it started cracking and breaking around the rim. Your video saved me from a rotten smelly mess. And the most excellent thing it is customizable to fit sized containers. Just use at least 10 feet of rope or more and it will carry 100lbs with the right sized diameter rope. ROPE DIAMETER IS IMPORTANT.

This knot is awesome. Thank you so much for posting this.

I am here to tell you this doesn't work at all unless you got the right shaped container. After two or more hours of trying this over and over it does not work at all on any kind of smooth bottom container the ropes will slip right off and if you are trying to use long enough rope to have a handle that even reaches over the top then it slides all off every way it can. The container has to have humps or grooves in the bottom for the ripe to hold on to and the handles can not extend above the top of the container at all

Your first knot is what is usually used to join two rope, lines, strings of different or the same size. Works well. I'm a yatch chandler and have twenty years sea time. If you want ideas please ask.

This might be my favorite random subscription.

Our New Years Piñata handle broke so I was able to hang it using this knot, thanks man!

This knot will help me carry an MRE to finish a 100 mile bike ride on a fixie. Thanks.

Lol I just subscribed right before he hypnotized me how ironic

[jennygabbard]

Thanks. That is what I've been searching for. I have an elderly lady who lost use of her left arm. Trying to make some way for her to carry a drink or cup of pet food.

Just twist it over twice instead of once before you set the item in it if you have slippage issues

[gabrielgomescunha]

It does not work with a perfect cylinder without some kind of groove underneath to keep the cord from sliding form underneath

Oco Jan 2014 - A Knot

A knot
Is never just a knot
A knot
Is a problem
Meant to be undone
Or a solution
Holding something together
And never anything between

There is a knot
Between you and me
I extend toward you
And you toward me
And we get tangled
And I don’t know
If it is a good knot
Or a bad knot

Saw something like this on FaceBook , You explained it . Well taught - you rock ! Had the odd urge to subscribe . Strange .

[migmagingenieria]

Super neat!!!! I will try it now!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

[nateolson]

Would you recommend this knot to go around either end of a rooftop cargo box to hoist it to the ceiling on a pulley system?

[CDmc]

thanks man I made it work with an unworkable amount of rope

[joemar]

Looks like just what I need! Gonna use it to pulley an old water heater up an already-grimy carpeted staircase, and then slip a new hybrid w. heater (heavy!) down. Will let you know! BTW, you came up as the 2nd item when I Googled "How to make a rope cradle for lifting heavy object." Glad you did!

[dullegriet]

Thank you! This will really help me with something at work. Much appreciated.
