      Comments about Lashing Cord:

      This is my second order and I love this stuff. IT works great, is durable and I found the roll lasted a long time even though I use it all the time. For tying things together outside, it's great because it lasts a LONG time. I can only think of a couple times where it degraded before I had to cut it off what I made. Great stuff. Yes, it's sticky, but that's the point.You're going to wash your hands anyway, right?

        Comments about Lashing Cord:

        I've tried a lot of different strings and cords for tying together trellises and bamboo and didn't know this waxed stuff existed until recently. It saved me some headaches; it grips while you're tying things together so you don't have to pull the string taut the entire time.

          Comments about Lashing Cord:

          This comment may draw censorship because it has a link to a video, but I hope not because if I could submit my review, it would go like this: This wondrous cord, coupled with the knowledge of how to lash bamboo, (learn how to lash in a great short video clip [@] will position you to be able to make simple, customizable garden structures of any shape for the rest of your life! We have built a wide variety of bamboo structures by finding a source of local, sustainable, free bamboo, and learning how to lash through the internet video. Since the bamboo is free, the knowledge of how to lash is critical but easy to learn with repetition, and since the lashing makes robust yet nice-looking structures, once you have this great cord from Gardener's Supply, your expense for trellises, etc. will be about [$] a year -- the price of one roll! And you'll be able to lash any two pieces of bamboo in a utilitarian yet elegant knot. We now buy multiple rolls and have started teaching folks around us.

          Comments about Lashing Cord:

          My lashing cord arrived and I set it on my potting bench. Two days later I was going to use it, but it was sticky - the wax coating had melted and sealed the cord to itself. I haven't attempted to use it since and have gone back to my old trellis twine. I'll try refrigerating it before attempting to use it again, but this seems like more trouble than its worth.

            the only cord that didn't loosen or slip from the bamboo poles, works great. I used it to secure the wooden tiki torches to my deck too.

                  Comments about Lashing Cord:

                  I bought the lashing cord to tie up willow fencing. Was way too flimsy, too hard to thread through fencing and tie on stakes. Need a needle with a dull point to handle it.
                  So, I bought regular black plastic ties. Worked very well, very strong and easy to use, easy to pull tight to stay.
                  Probably a good cord for something else.

                    Comments about Lashing Cord:

                    I used this cord for lashing bamboo together to make a trellis. It worked really well. Initially i tried to use normal nylon cord, which was very difficult. This was really easy to use. The cord doesn't go as far as one would think though. I thought that i would have more than enough for my project but i ran out 3/4 of the way. The picture seems to show more than what was on my roll. And now that i have to purchase another,[...] But it worked well.

                      The great thing about it - is it's easy to use, you can press it in place until your hands are free to tie it.

                      The con issue it that your hands get sticky using it. But I like it very much, it's thin and strong and the wax coating makes it easy to use.
