If you were to use the rope produced it would be best in a situation where it got little or no sunlight or it would go brittle and fail quite quickly. The product could also be woven into reinforcement in strong baskets for foraging or fishing.

Though you'd probably need to tie it with a timber hitch...it could also have sharp edges.

True Mike, if I was reduced to using it I would twist to give it added strength

Plastic bottles are a Versatile bit of kit great video

You could tweak the thickness somewhat and make a rode fishing line

If you got it narrow enough you could probably manage to lariat plait it into an actual rope, again a little hard on the hands but a useful skill to have.
