Hi, Buckwheat, don't know much about knots, either, only know the difference between a "square" knot and a "granny", will try to explaine the square knot that I used. Two pieces of twine crossed, bring one end under and up so both ends are pointing up, [now comes the difference between a granny and a square], do the same thing again, if the twine on iether side passes through the loop of the other twine on the same side of the loop, you have a square knot, if the end passes on the opposite side of the loop, you have a granny, that does not hold very good. I know, clear as mud! On the baler, split the ends of the twine in half, back far enough to tie a square knot in the two ends, then lay the other halves back over the knot and roll briskly between the palms a few times. This seems to "set" the twine back into shape. Note... this is for sisal twine, not plastic, but the square knot is for any twine, rope or string. Have probably confused you totaly, but, have a gooder, anyway, R.E.L.
