36" on an 88 is sweet! Did you buy the saw new Rupe?
-
I went to Jimmy greens about a year ago and bought a universal fid and a fid for three strand which I have been doing since being taught at college, my mother lives close to beer so next time I go I will have a rummage.
By the way where can I find instructions for Yale xtc eye splice?

I like it Al. -
Thanks Jamie, 945mm damn, close but a little short. I am hooked now.
-
I don't get on with it myself, maybe I should try it again.

Bury is around 10cm, can Ocean Polyester be spliced?
-
Thanks Pete.
-
Thanks all, yeah Pete I will lock stitch it later when I find out how:) Then I can try it tomorrow Stu. I have been struggling with the double braid splice for days until today when I read some of Jamie's and Nicks advice over at the house, namely stitching the cross over and making the tapered cover neater. It's a Marlow cord and it looks like it's 9mm.

My first one, now I need to whip the ends.

Hello Jamie, I got some stuff from Jimmy Greens and thanks to you and Nick posting on the house I now know to stitch the cross over point which makes one hell of a difference, also massaging and bending, I made a splice this afternoon with none of the problems I have been having.
What tips for making an eye to eye prussic cord?
Cheers, Carl.

I don't know, friends are getting a little worried and are tightening belts, spreading the work out rather than ploughing through it, extra days used to be no problem just a phone call, now that seems to have stopped happening, at least for now. Time to get some more baskets for my eggs.

Nice post Reg.

I use my climbing line a lot for light lowering, some may say it's wrong, those that do can take a running jump, imo.

Shame on you!

Good stuff, saw him live once, glad to hear he's actually got some more material.

I was re-pollarding a willow a couple of weeks ago, one side was hanging over an allotment the other side had a clear drop with a nice big leaner leaning the right way, I tied a small line to three of the limbs leaning over the allotment then tied it off on the big leaner I put in face cuts in all three of the allotment side leaners then back cuts, leaving a nice thick hinge. I then felled the big leaner, as it went over it pulled the three back leaning limbs with it. I think I got the idea from Jerry's book.
-
OK, it's Marlow but still.
-
Two years, that seems pretty poor imo.
-
OK, what splice is suitable for the cord? Double braid eye splice, superbraid/spectraspeed eye splice?

My Sony Cybershot is ready at the store after being reprogrammed and given a stern talking to, it's never been that clever from day one, software crashing, freezing, turning its self off, alarm only going off when the phone is switched off and complete failure of the PC software. Good camera though.
