commando rope apparatus


Recommended Posts

This was a length of rope that had a spliced eye in one end, and a wooden toggle on the other end. Each person could carry their own shorter section of rope (memory serves me as 6 feet), and when linked together (toggle into spliced eye) you could form a rope of whatever length needed. This way, one person didn't have to carry a long rope - each person shared the responsibility equally.

We made commando ropes for Woodbadge. They were part of our uniform. It's a good project for the Scouts also but don't let them sling them around as a weapon. :)

 

Good to see you back Bob White
