Pretty much everyone was probably already in a predicament: You need a bit of rope to tie something. But the role is far too long and far and wide, neither knife nor scissors in sight. Get closer to your goal in seven-mile boots with this simple but stupidly effective trick.
If your piece of rope has a certain length, take a folding rule and miss it beforehand.
A marker helps enormously. So you know exactly where to start the next step.

Finally, I know how to help myself in the case. A perfect trick for anglers, campers and garden fans. But everyone else should know him. I bet you’ll be able to impress a lot of people (and get another $ 1 on a bet).
