I am adding an intercom to my plane (a Pietenpol), and want to re-do all of the
wiring harnesses (not very many in a Pietenpol). I gave it a shot last night,
but after my first go at it, I think there are probably some techniques for
knots that I don't know. Can anyone point me to a "how to" site, or give me
some tips on knot tying? How many knots per foot is typical? I think mine
will hold, but there is probably a better way to do it.

Thanks for any tips!

I should have done a little more searching before I posted. I found this link
to a copy of a tutorial from the Bureau of Naval Weapons, circa 1962. Seems
like pretty good information, I figured someone else might be interested too:

I'm still interested in anyone's comments.
