THESE ROPES ARE MADE FROM
THOUSANDS OF NYLON FIBERS THAT ARE FINER THAN HUMAN HAIR
BUT STRONGER. TO MAKE ROPE, YARNS WIND
AROUND ALUMINUM CYLINDERS PULLED BY A TURNING SPOOL
DOWN THE LINE. THEN, THREE AT A TIME, THE YARNS
ROLL OVER ANOTHER SPOOL THAT APPLIES A PROTECTIVE
COATING OF URETHANE. THEY FUNNEL THROUGH
A DISTRIBUTION PLATE THAT HOLDS THEM EVENLY APART. THIS ENSURES
THEY'RE AT AN EVEN TENSION AS A ROCKING SPOOL TWISTS THEM
INTO ONE LARGER YARN
