I love your sea chest so much. Have you tried any of the knot work in the book?
nodbear once bought me a little box of cord with instructions on how to tie various knots. I'm afraid out attempts were very lubberly, but I vaguely recall we posted pictures of the results here.
The book recommends practice. It suggests I purchase 'a 6 to 8 foot length of tarred rope' which it assures me is 'available from any reputable sailmaker.'
Well, you know what they say, practice makes perfect. See and remember to pick up an 8 foot length of tarred rope from your local sailmaker next time you're out for groceries. Make sure they're reputable though!
I did not know pictures were huge. I took them from my phone. I am not very good at pictures thing. I will redo them smaller as soon as son can help me.
