THERE IS A DEVICE ON THE MARKET THAT ALLOWS FOR SOME SELF-INSTRUCTION and practice in tying knots that are most-used in the fire/EMS service. Rob Ladd, publisher of New London County Fire Photos sent this tip along for us.

The device, called The Fourteener, is a one-piece utensil that simulates 14 different pieces of hardware that you are most likely to be tying off to. The kit also supplies a length of braided nylon rope of the right size to practice with, along with an adjustable strap that can be used to anchor the Fourteener to a fixed object.
