How do you splice tenex onto a pinto

You have to unravel the length of Tenex that you need on the one side and redo the weaving when you are done with the 1st side. There are a few great splicers on this forum that can and have done just that! I'm just one of over a dozen or so that know how to do a locking Brummell on each cheek plate. You have to be extremely patient and obviously aware of what you are trying to do, for it to work!

 

I personally prefer Double Braid when going from cheek to cheek plates, I've spliced dozens of them! They are just if not stronger than Tenex! I'd like to see a Brummell from cheek to cheek Tommy_B

I thought you could do it?

 

 

I just use a link pulley for pulley savers etc. Much easier.

So I'm pretty handy at a double braid splice and make all my own eye to eyes. You guys think if I wanted to splice onto each cheek of a pinto it would be easier to learn the tenex splice or stick with a double braid one?

Is it a bit of a ball-ache or does it pop in without too much bother?

For a pinto DB is simple enough.

I have to agree, DB is a lot faster than Tenex. But if you just make a loop through the cheek plates with a spacer, then you can do a locking Brummell and tail bury. That's the easiest method. IMHO! The only way I've done Tenex cheek to cheek has been to unravel the length of the Brummell and tail. Best of Luck.
