Hi Drew B

I had a bash at splicing 8 mm armour prus today and was able to splice a single eye using a class two double braid splice. This worked but I found the rope was stiff after the core on core bury. I then tried an eye and eye split tail and managed to screw things up.

Any advice on how to tapper the inner core and do you make the bury half way down the rope on either end so that the finished split tail has an even tapper. I think things went sideways for me because the eyes were too small. I have spliced most Samson braids & Yale braids but the inner core on the armour prus is very different.

Thanks for any help you can give me
