Looks like you almost have it The barrel wraps can be hard to get the hang of, it just a feeling thing, you have to get the right amount of pressure. Also, if you start losing the barrel, cut the line and start over. Good luck

that one is not quite there. wraps need to be a bit cleaner. Just takes practice, if you're not cutting off the circulation in your hands, it probably won't work. You're almost there, it's a fun knot to learn.

Next time you are in OC, let me know, I would be glad to help. Alot of people make the knot harder than it is by the technique they use. I can have you tying a perfect bimini within a half hour. You are already on your way, just need to fine tune it.

[frankypettolina]

If you are buying the beer, I fear that it will take possibly four or five hours, maybe an entire weekend to learn to properly tie a Bimini

But I promise you will get it right!!

Austin,

I have seen a bunch of grown men that can't tie a Bimini that good. It will work just fine. And the more you tie um the easier they get.

Pretty work,

thanks for the comments....im always looking for improvement!!! i use the spider hitch some time but its a little bigger than the bimini ....

thanks-austin
