hay elevator
- The hay company got to my barn without a belt to run the conveyor and motor to get my hay in the loft. The guys were going to head down to the local auto parts store to get one that might fit. I braided 3 strands of twine together and made a belt. A few adjustments and 5 tons of hay got put in the loft!

Baler Twine
- As a child I had to spend hours doing this, but was so proud. Plait, always keeping 3 lengths different so you can keep adding more. Then keep going!!! Finally you can sew together whirls, loops whatever takes your fancy; and at the end you will have a hard wearing door mat that will last years :)

DEER-DOG LEADS.
- I have used binder-twin to lead and restrain deer-dogs when makeing a "deer-drive. you can hold the dogs back and run with them up the mountain untill you get 'winded', usually you can hear your own heart pounding in your ears by this time. Then you simply take your hunting knive and cut the 'binder-twine and let the dogs run after the deer, while you wait to get a shot at the deer.

- I use a piece of twine to wrap around the metal slide on the back of the horse trailer this way it can't bounce open going down bumpy roads.

Halter
- I have sheep and most of the time I buy halters but I now have lambs and need to start training them they are so tiny no halter I have will fit them so I made my own. They are so easy to make and if you wrap some duct tape around the rough parts it is soft. Baler twine is also used on my farm to hold together the barn.
