    Step 1: Drill Holes

    First, take a 1.5-cm-thick wood block and cut it into a 15x5-cm rectangle with a saw. Mark a centre using a pencil, and
    then mark two locations from the ends. Drill a 15-mm hole in the centre and two 10-mm holes in the other two locations,
    as shown in the photos. Use a sander for the proper nishing of this wood block. You can use cardboard if you don't have
    wood blocks.

    Step 2: Feed Rope Through Wood

    After you've nished the wood block, cut a 50-inch-long rope that's 1/4-inch thick.Cut this rope using scissors and seal
    the frayed ends of the rope with a lighter. This made it quite simple for the rope to pass through the little hole.
    Then, as shown in the picture, take this rope and thread it through the center hole. Then make a square rope knot like the
    one in the picture by passing two ends through this middle rope gap.

    Step 3: Pass Nuts

    Then take one M12 nut and pass one rope end through the nut hole. Then pass this rope end through the left-side 10
    mm hole of the wood block. Tie knots at the ends of the rope, and do the same for the second nut and rope end.
