What are y'all doing to get the lines even when tying this knot? Do you wet the knot so that it will pull up tight?
Any help/suggestions that y'all can come up with will be greatly appreciated..

Practice is all I can say. Also use the old EZ-Just handle.
As I hit the send button it occurred to me the fiber handle and line we used to get in 1/2A kits. Thread the lint through the handle. Tie loose ends to the plane. Centered line similar to the EZ-Just. Most events you are allowed 6 inches.

Yes, moisten the knot before trying to take it fully tight.
Tie one end of both lines, then stretch them out, measure and mark them with a sharpie. Include the mark in the knot. With a little care it is reasonably easy.
