First ever splice.

[Mick Stockbridge]

Rained off today so Rich Rule spliced a new eye in my used Tachyon. Pics of Rich showing me the process followed by a pic of his work on the right and my first attempt on the left.

 

I've finally worked out want I want for Xmas, a fid, a sailmakers palm and some needles......
