Thank you for getting straight to the point. Good explanation. So many YouTube tutorials have such a long intro

I’ve been in the tile trade for 20 years. I’ve always done a slip knot and fought the line trying to get it taut. Big thank you

Good technique. Thanks for sharing! BTW, you might double check your script. You began by saying this was something you remember from when you used to build houses. At the end, you thanked someone for sending in the tip. I know both can be accurate at the same time, but you confused me by bookending the two comments. Maybe, 'someone sent in a tip that reminded me of my old house building days". I know, I know. I gotta find another hobby. Anyway, thanks again.

Just started a concreting job and tying off a line has slowed me a fair bit because I dont know how to do it. This should be a handy tip.

One of my coworkers uses this, but I can't do it to save my life. Do you have to get the tied part to have some type of support or pressure? I see you had a stick to kinda help the tension stay in place.

So do you wipe your nose before you tighten the string?

Did you make the music for intro and outtro? There's no copyright concern because it's yours. Right?
