My splicing attempts

[Mesterh]

French chalk, not much good for ropes no.

 

Arr right so thats what it is.

 

Chalk made by the cheese eating surrender monkeys is a no no then.

You can have a fiddle with my toss wand next time your up here if you want.

Here's my latest splicing. Ropeguide 2.0.

 

Just need to whipp it and use the heat gun and jobs a fish cake:biggrin:.

 

Inside the large eye ive inserted some 5mm wire to make retrieval easier. First impressions seem promising.

Looks nice mate. Have you seen the trapeeze on the new Rope Guides? You don't need to undo them, They have a little spring on one side! You just push them onto the rope! Totally pointless and will only save about 10 secs out of your working day, But I thought it was cool!! haha!! Probably cost about £20 though!!! haha!!

[David Humphries]

Nice H

 

Inseted wires an inspiration, let us know how you get on with that

I was talking to nod about what to do for the best. Ive always had my doubts about soft eyes over cambium rings too. This idea does seem to work really well though.

 

Lts face it,they all get stuck at some point!! haha
