Warning: I used a cheap string line for a 400-foot run in Dallas and the wind kept blowing it off the stakes.
Switched to a heavy-duty mason's line with a proper reel and tensioner, and it stayed put all day, so what's your go-to method for keeping a long line tight?

Yeah, a good tensioner is a total game changer.

Wait, are you saying you used to sew WITHOUT a tensioner? My old machine didn't have one and everything was a mess. I tried making a simple tote bag and the bottom thread was all loopy and loose. The whole thing puckered up as soon as I put a book in it. How did you manage to get anything done before?
