Cothes Pins
The easiest method to rig a clothesline is to tie it between two trees. However, if you are in an open field, in a period painting we observed a clothesline set up in a military camp that relied on poles lashed into an "X", the X secured upright with guy lines, and the clothesline tied to the poles. See the sketch below. If you are doing a laundress impression, you should keep an account of each soldier's
amount due (you can use one of the blank books found in the reproduction books) and,
if the soldiers are doing a paymaster impression, the laundress and the sutler get paid
before each individual soldier.
Price: $ 0.XX each If you want to look at the previous item in the list,.

As discussed in the table, the clothes pins we carry are almost identical
to a one-piece type found on the Steamboat Arabia (They did have a spring type
that no one reproduces). They can be used on rope up to about 1/4 inch
(Just be careful of the rope you use. Most modern braided "clothesline" has a
synthetic
core that, with use, will stick out at the ends of the rope. We will be
trying
to find appropriate cordage of a smaller diameter).
