Cordage (2 different techniques to make)

1. Find two different techniques for making cordage. In your posting make sure you either link or embed specific directions for each of the techniques.

1. Making cordage from hand, http://www.primitiveways.com/cordage.html
2. Making cordage from natural resources such as sinews or dead plants http://www.wildwoodsurvival.com/survival/cordage/men79/index.html

2. Create a list of the locally available resources that can be used for cordage production.
For each resource (plants for example) create a description of the resource.
Include:
A. what it looks like (this can be a picture or series of pictures)
B. where can it be found ( a map, a written description)
C. Other uses for this resource
D. Hazards of using this resource (ex, poisonous, has thorns, skin irritation...)

Sinew 
-Sinews are tough fibrous tissue uniting muscle to bone or bone to bone; a tendon or ligament.
-A person can't grow sinews, one can find them in animals or at their local grocery store if you ask a meat packer.
-Sinews are very strong so they can hold packages together in tight bonds.
-Sinews aren't hazardous to people. 










Hemp

-Hemp is environmentally friendly so one can grow it in his/her back yard with the hemp seeds found in local plant shops.
-Hemp can be used in food with meat as well as medicine for anti-inflammatory medicines.
-Hemp isn't hazardous because it doesn't have a certain chemical that marijuana has so one can't get high from hemp.


















Spruce

-Most spruce trees are found in North American but near Canada and Alaska area, which isn't close to New Jersey at all. If you want spruce wood you can buy it in hardware stores or grow one yourself with the spruce seedlings.
-Spruce wood can be burned to heat someone up, it can also be used in food and medicine but the leaves not the wood. As well as the tip of the leaves can make syrup.
-Spruce wood, tree, and leaves aren't harmful. Unless a person is allergic to spruce there shouldn't be any allergic reaction.
