Cool, just wondered if you had been NC’ing as double braids don’t like to be used like that, as the core and cover are independent and can cause some funny outcomes.
Has the rope of a bundle of loose cover in the middle?
Equalise or milk it with a Prussic knot or klemheist or similar friction...
Thanks Burnham.
It is something I used to enjoy doing. Pretty addictive but as I stocked up on Rope and kit before I moved to Norway, I haven’t had the need or the inclination.
I guess my rigging line should be due for replacement soon. Maybe, just maybe I’ll make my hands sore again. 😂...
After Tommy’s comment. I went through a load of FB pictures and there was lots of spliced in there. ;)
I recon I have posted them before but I am bored so here they are. Not spliced anything in 3 years since I moved to Norway.
I would have just given them a demonstration of you splicing something up to tie and gag them... that would have shut them up and got them to wind their necks in a bit. ;)
I hear you on the losing things though. I would regularly lose things when splicing, like the skin on the pad of every...
A couple of others I have knocked up...

Tim,
You are correct on the name front. It is easier than it looks mate, a bit of practice and picking up useful techniques from other splicers helps. i did my first splice about 5 or 6 years ago after someone did one for me and it was a POS! I thought just do it myself. So checked youtube...
Haha. I am English mate.
A brew to me is a cup 'o' tea!
Bloody antipodeans, always takeing it down a notch! I thought the Brits were supposed to be the piss heads!?!
