Val's knot

Hi! The first, I am from Spain, so forgive my gramatical errors. I will try to do my best.

Knots are a nighmare for me, so I start this topic for people like me (knots haters).

Building the weapon, you can see the rope has got 3 knots. 2 are easy to resolve, but the third can be problematic. It is a hangman’s knot (in Spain is their name).

This is the photo that has helped me the most:

The other knots are easier

The belt's knots are the same, just with 2 and 3-4 twist. For the blaster, we need 6.

I love knots, but mine never look right.  Thanks for posting this Miriam.
