Welcome!

I craft high-quality rope one at a time, and it compares with the best rope available while offered at competitive prices. I use textile quality jute yarns, and (b)itchin’ coconut fibers. I have to import these from overseas, but it makes for a fine hand-made rope from right here in the Heartland.

If you need to contact me, you may email me using rope at my domain name.

Yesterday I took an impromptu 100 mile ride through Illinois cornfields. Saw this silo with an ad on the side and thought it looked photo worthy. Bike is a Texas-sunbleached '95 Honda ST1100 that passed 95,000 miles last week.

New paddle made from antique oak. All edges were shaped with the draw knife for a handmade and rustic feel. This is the first time I've ever done this Japanese finishing technique, called Shou-sugi-ban.

Deep red offset with the black grain, it leaves a striking impression... Finished with 6 to 8 coats of clear lacquer ( I lost count.) Approx 4" by 16" overall. $40. Free shipping if you buy any of my rope too.

Rope maker experimentation time! A couple of time

Rope maker experimentation time! A couple of times in the past I have blended two colors together to make a rope but was never really happy with the asymmetrical nature; one strand one color, two strands the other color. So this time I mixed it up so it's symmetrically asymmetrical. One strand is black, one strand is natural, one strand is half and half. Very interesting look! If this is something you've got to have, please let me know.

You knew I made extra robust spectra reinforced jute rope right? Msg me for some, starting at just $20 each. 6mm jute 8m long with 300 to 900lbs* of spectra added. *please note I do not claim that the Rope is this strong.

New paddle made from reclaimed antique oak. All edges were shaped with the draw knife for a handmade and rustic feel. This is the first time I've ever done this Japanese finishing technique, called Shou-sugi-ban.

First the wood is carefully scorched, then wire brushed back to showing lighter colors of the grain. Next a barn red stain is applied which reddens the lighter grain. Offset with the black grain, it leaves a striking impression... Finished with 6 to 8 coats of clear lacquer ( I lost count.) Approx 4" by 16" overall. $45. Free shipping if you buy any of my rope too.
