I was curious...How do you use your bailing twine? You can post how you use it even if other people post the same thing :) I use it for:
Halters
Leadropes
Collars (for the occasional nawty dog)
Whips (in case someone gets nippy or I need to fend for myself in the field...much easier than carrying normal whips!)
Temporary fixes for things
Fencing line (although they still act like they get shocked by it, lol)
Holding things together
Carrying hay to the horse
Jumprope
Aaannnd thats all I can think of...What do you guys use it for?

Hanging buckets is its number 1 use here. BUT Its been used to...
Attach cross ties.
Tie dogs.
A belt.
A make shift riding crop.
Attach to the end of the whip during de-sensatizing.
Tie saddle bags onto the back of the saddle.
Tie tarps after rolling them up.
A half-assed attempt as a quick fence on more than one occasion.
Trailer ties in a pinch.
Tieing a gate shut.
Hung a few swings using bailing twine.
Made long lines too.

I agree, Tying dogs, tying tarps, using it currently for keeping my bedroll rolled(lost my straps), tying gates shut.
In a pinch I have used it for piggin" string. Temporary tack repair.
I seen some one replace the seat and back of a folding lawn chair by weaving baling twine, same with making a hammock. Tying panels onto the trailer or panels together when the pins are lost. I have used it to tie the back gate shut on the trailer when the latch broke. Temporary fence mending. Sneaky way to catch horses. Makes dandy clothes line.

I tried to make a hay net. It looked just like the ones you but except for the fact I wasn't doing a diamond, and it was all catywampus. My second try during the summer will be better. It's also used tied around the scissors to give it a better place to hang. We've used it to fix halters as well.
