You guys won! Sike! But i did think that in order for me not to be a hypocrite i had to at least try it on one of my splices to see how she goes. Now to infinity and Beyond!!!

Wespur, treestuff, sherril all offer spliced double braids and im pretty sure 16 strand too. I am an amateur splicer myself All of the splices broke above 4000lbs and even the one in the six k range still had good amount of movement during the whole pull. One thing i did notice that, the...

@Tommy_B is that orange one a 16 strand? Ooo is that an adjustable friction saver? Me likey! @Brocky well samson's double braid instructions say to finish splice with with a lock stitching. I have been watching yoyoMans aka richard Mumford's youtube channel and all of the double braids he has...

Just a little whipping, i am reluctant to do lock stiching because ever break video where they break ropes there is so much movement in the eye that i dont want to interfere with any fibers in the splice since that is where the rope will break. In my opinion i think lock stitching is a big...

@Jonny were you able to do any splicing las nigh or this morning? I think im going to turn my wire fid into a wire fid like this! It would be nice to have a handle on the end. https://www.treestuff.com/rope-logic-wire-fid/

I forget what these things are called but they are great tools when extracting the core out of the cover. I use them the exact way shown in samson double braid video how they extract the core. I just find the little hook on them grabs the core great and they are dull on the ends so that they...

this is a good tip if the crossover is being stubborn. this probably wont happen with stable braid but for some one down the line splicing a climbing line double braid this might help in the video he splices ocean poly in a 28 inch i2i...

i think this guy has a great tip about marking the cover instead of using marker to mark the cover of the rope. plus he has some other great videos on splicing, if your a splicing pro it wont be anything new. but sill check out the first couple of minutes to see how he marks his cover that is...

Yeah i wasnt fond of how they finished with the cover. I will have to simmer on all the double rope splice instructions and come up with a frankenstein splice. :D I got to use my newly spliced stable braid today. It worked fantastic! I used one side to butt tie and the othe side of the rope to...

has anyone tried a class 2 double braid splice with a class 1 rope? looks easier as long as you do a great whipping jobbie at the end

@Jonny are you going to use the trango vergo as an adjuster for your lanyard?

One thing i did do differently on the second splice was the taper on the cover and core. I followed their directions and then on top of theirs i than uweaved 3 to 4 inches from the end and cut at a diagonal. I noticed on my first splice that it was a little bumpy and that made it all better...

@Jonny I watch this With this attachment open in the back ground so when i forget what line they are refering to i go to this for a reminder its the samson written instructions its all class 1 double briad eye

These two are my first two double braid splices Ever! YeeHaawww!!! 3/8 stablebraid is very fantastic for first time. me, cherry popped good! Me love long time. Im suprised how easy it was to follow SAMSONS video. I got this rope on clearance from wesspur and i had be looking for light rigging...

I made this beauti last night. I teally enjoy splicing, it helps me wind down at night. But anyways i found myself looking at these kind of prusik loops in catalogs and so i decided im going to make it. I sure am glad that i decided to buy that 100ft of tenex tec a while ago, i have been able to...

I was wondering if anyone has spliced 12 strand hollow braid like this. What i did was made a whoopie splice how the cord runs inside itself and then the tail got tucked after i had made the eye. With the tail tuck i went down a couple of picks before tucking i didnt think i could fit it in the...

This is the whipping with the i2i i made, you can see how shinny it looks from the clear guerilla glue.

In the first picture, This is an end of my newest piece of hitch cord. I put a eye on one end and seizing method 2 in samsons terms on the other. I did not measure out the lenght the old fashion way. i tied a friction hitch extremely longer than practical and then tied an anchor knot and gave...

Hot dip galvanized

Thanks for the info Mr Burns. i think they are hdg, i was just messing around about it being a friction saver but after looking at them i think they will do the job. Like you said there is a couple of places that isnt the smoothest so i will smooth it out and give it a shot. Im going to try...
