a test

[Dryrod]

[unsure] [font "Poor Richard"][size 4][green]I[/green][green] wanted to see if a little bit of nail hardener would compromise the integrity of a knot. Making a surgeons knot I applied a small amount of nail hardener. Given sufficient time to dry I applied equal pressure from both ends. The line broke at the knot. This was repeated several times with the same results always breaking at the same point. I then repeated the test but didn't use any hardener. Surprise - the line broke also at the knot just like the other tests. Conclusion, the line is weakest at a given knot.[] I guess that I will have to use a pull scale to determine if the nail hardener altered the line's strength.[/green][/size][/font]
