Rope making: 'laying' or twisting three strands of hemp yarn to form a rope. Three strands were fastened to gooks on a wheel (right of picture) The strands were placed in grooves on the piece of wood called a 'top' resting on wheeled carriage and this prevented tangling. The top man ensured an even, firm twist, and as the process progressed he gradually pushed the top and carriage towards the wheel.
