Bosun's Brush

Bosun's Brush
1/2" manila rope folded in half. 2 ends tied in 2 strand diamond (lanyard) knot. Ends combed out and trimmed. Great brush for removing crumbs from tablecloth.

Simple yet elegant....and best of all...useful. I like it!

 

[Monikieman]

That's really nice. Well done.

That's really nice work there. I suppose if you kept the brush end shorter you could use one as a brush to baste BBQ meat and the likes.
Cheers for sharing.

Sent via smoke-signal from a woodland in Scotland.

I'm having another look and now I need to add 1/2" manilla to the long list of things on my project list.

Think I'll have a new BBQ brush. Thanks again.

Great idea, nicely done.

 

[Muddypaws]

Great idea! Thanks for sharing - now off to see if I have any suitable rope.

Pretty cool! Nice work.

 

[richardhomer]

Really Nice and useful too.

Great idea thanks for sharing. Now I just have to find some 1/2"manilla rope in less than 50' lengths.

 

[Imagedude]

That'd make a great snowbrush especially if you used thicker rope...

 

[Stew]

You know, that is such a simple idea and I'm here wondering how have I never thought of it before!
excellent!

Group buy?

Joking aside, this guy over on ebay does it by the metre with free postage

That's a neat idea. Can see being useful to clean out the tent floor

Oh nice find well done.... thanks.

I just ordered a meter of rope to have a go at making one.

 

[Imagedude]

I've just ordered a metre of 36mm rope to make snow brushes with...and I ordered some whipping string too. Now all I have to do is learn how to tie whips...

 

[TarHeelBrit]

Just a FYI ladies and gents. 1 meter of rope will NOT be long enough to make a brush, I know I just tried. So I ordered 3 meters.

 

[humdrum_hostage]

Great idea! as I am currently failing on the Hazel brush

I have just ordered 2 metres on Ebane, I hope that is going to be enough....

I bet these ebayers are confused witht the sudden influx in sales of malina rope

 

[TarHeelBrit]

I bet they are, first I ordered 1 metre....not long enough so I bought 3 metres which arrived yesterday I plan to have another go later today.
