What rope for your lanyard??

[Neil Wilson - tree connection]

also interested in this. i've got a 13mm yale xtc rope which isn't exactly the nicest. i was hoping to get a 9m ce lanyard off ebay last night, but it was sold for a bit too much.

 

why not just find the bits on honey bros and stick it together yourself?

 

found the ocean vectran loop with eye thing on there too.

 

I coppied the same design as the celanyard but used some Marlo wasp instead from Forest an Arb, cheep as chips though pretty thick at 13mm

God job Matt, look verry nice! I can´t see stiching. On my similary lanyard i use shorter prusik from 8mm Sirius (DB,spliced acording to Samson direction) and as friction knot distel.

Mine's a bit "out there" - 12mm Kingfisher Kingbraid which is a polyester rope with 4550kg average break load (44.6kN). I have two lengths of rope - a 5m and a 3m. It's lovely to handle, works beautifully with my SAR Rocker. Dead simple and reliable set up.

It was all stitched up before it was climbed on. To be honest, I hate lock stitching and whipping.... It drives me nuts so I really have to psych myself up to do it! Lol

I have done one splice using Brion Toss' method of invisible lock stitching which turned out ok!

Its not bad to splice. Its a bit tight on the bury but nothing major.

 

Which spliced you need to use??
