 *Never use slip knots or knots that can lock down on themselves. Whenever possible use non-cinching ties, especially the kind that may untie at the bite and working ends. Remember that changing the Bottom’s position after the tie can change muscle tightness. Place knots responsibly, off of joints and bones.  Don’t put a big knot in middle of their spine if you’re going to lay them on their back.
 *''ALWAYS'' keep flat edged medical safety scissors[http://www.amazon.com/Stainless-Surgical-Scissors-Bondage-Safety/dp/B002C600ZA] near by in a place you can instantly locate and reach for in case you have to release someone quickly.  You are tying people, not objects; destroy the rope not the person.  Rope is replaceable, people are not.  Test your scissors to cut a piece of the rope you are using to make sure they are able to quickly release.  Do not use a knife or typical scissors as these may cut or impale the [[bottom]].
 *Pull rope, don’t push it. Be purposeful in how you move and place rope to avoid rope burn and whipping the bottom in the face with your working ends.  Avoid rope pinches and rolling rope.  Have a plan but feel free to modify as you go to ensure partner connection. Use safe signals check in with the Bottom that don’t disrupt the scene.
