many a true word..... any ship's chandlers will sell expensive rope but good polyester (terylene) will last many times longer than cheap stuff and be kinder on your hands tying gates, etc. cheap/Chinese=junk , best left on't shelf.

rope? whats that? is it like steel cable but made from plants? or is it some kind of old fashioned ratchet strap?

Whats wrong with platting a few bits of baler string together!

I've never had a problem with the ordinary blue polyprop rope, I think it is better than the braided stuff if you are actually roping with it. The braided stuff burns/melts itself where the hitch is pulled.

There's lots of places you can get good quality ropes. Just be careful as some ropes can irritate the skin around the wrists and ankles (according to a friend)

Essential when lashing with big bale string……
