HOMESTEAD HOW-TO
Tie a small fishing hook to the floss. You can hang the other end of the floss from a stick or just hold it.
1
Use the floss to fasten a sharpened rock or knife blade securely to the end of a sturdy stick.
2
Dental floss can be used instead of thread to mend torn clothes, tents or tarps.
3
Construct a bow drill with dental floss as the cordage.
4
Run a braided length of floss between two trees or in your house to act as a clothesline.
5
Floss is thin and durable, so it can repair torn fishing nets.
