  1. Can you not get a reader like ODBEleven or similar that would allow you to turn off the annoying features in the ECU?
  2. Why not Dm him Pat? That is what the message asks.
  3. I used to use some modified instructions from speaking with other experienced splicers. I am away at the moment and(also) haven’t spliced for a couple of years. I would have to have a look in my splicing manual which is back at home as I had all the modifications and measurements written in that. The main take away was the splices were break tested by other people and were stronger or as strong as the original instructions but the final bury and cover taper made it easier to finish the splices.

  9. I reckon they will be a hit with the lawn care guys and landscapers, along with smaller tree co's. 12" Bandit is a bit excessive if they only get used a few times a month.

  11. All those items could have been found in my house when I was growing up. In fact most of those items would be in every member of my families house.
  12. Oh ok? Tired and rough days here in Norway. Bloody freezing. As for the extra stretch from a big eye. That’s just what I was informed about 20 years ago when I started splicing. 😜
  13. I don’t think many people cow hitch their rigging line. But a lot of people do just clip the bina back onto the line. If the eye is larger the bury of the splice would be outside of the connection and not add stress or bend the throat of the splice. Interesting what Marlow came back with. Did they provide any break testing data? As I mentioned earlier the information I received from Nod, I am sure I asked the guy who splices for HB as well back in the day. I used to buy rigging lines without splices and put one in myself. That way you can make them whatever size you want. On a 16 or 19mm rigging line the throat of the double braid splice will be quite long. Using a rope that size and strength could mean you are rigging decent sized chunks. If something like having a large diameter eye reduces the risk of the throat being bent around timber and thus reducing it, Surely that is a good thing?
  14. Alex, wtf are you on about? Or are you implying I am invisible because I don’t respond within a couple of hours? News flash I was at work. 😛
