    Ditto. I like that idea. Keep making those videos Hawk Eye. So far you've sold me on an Ogee and knot bone tensioning!

    So where do you buy these Knot Bones? I've never seen them for sale. I ;like that you can add and remove them quickly

    Thanks, Miguel

    A couple / few of the vendors associated with hmmk stuff sell them. <$1 each, esp when purchased in quantity.

    There was a negative report on them here. I cannot see how they break if they are used sensibly. Sensible use would be as hitching posts, with the line compressing them, not pulling directly outward on the ears or holes. I do not have Hawk-Eye's experience; but I would pass the bungee cord through the length of the knot-bone if there was a possibility of the plastic eye breaking before the cord did.
