Tensioning
The individual lines of a tent typically go undetected, but they are essential for a good camping tent arrangement. However, as any person who has actually located them late at night after a few beers can testify, they can likewise be an actual nuisance!
There are numerous alternatives for anchoring person lines, including rope tie downs and cog assemblies. Each has its advantages and disadvantages.
A typical sort of camping anchor is a dead man anchor, which contains a rod with an eyelet buried in the ground at the angle of the person. Another type is a plate support, which has a steel plate inserted right into an opening full of concrete or structural epoxy.
One of the most preferred technique of attaching a guy line to a risk includes running the cord through a slip loophole made in a bowline or an unsafe half hitch around the pointer of the risk. This forms a 2:1 pulley and tightens up the line to the stake.
