5. Now take the working end and make a single turn around
a stationary object to act as an opposing anchor point to
the one the standing end is tied to.
6. Pass the working end through the loop you created in
step 4.

7. Pull the working end towards the anchor point you

and threading the working end through the loop in this
step is similar to a block and tackle. This is what provides

Figure 30e.
