Does anyone have pictures or video of back splicing Tenex tec?

I only have a general idea, more of a guess really, just want to do it right so it "stays put" and looks "half decent".

Thanks!

No way Jose! Just taper the last 6" or so of the rope, fold it in half and tuck it in. You don't need to stinkin vid. Gitrdun!

I am wondering how you can splice an Antal or x rigging ring in a closed loop with stable braid. Can anyone help?

 

[NickfromWI]

What do you mean by "closed loop?"

This should prob be another thread

Did you get it figured out?

 

[NHlocal]

I think so..... I'm gonna try to "finish it up" tomorrow. I'll post a pic when I do.

 

[NHlocal]

Nick,
I think I got it..... I didn't taper it 'cause I'm using it as a "stopper" so it won't pull back through.
I'm building another knee ascender.....

 

[NickfromWI]

Atta boy!

Pretty much looks like it.

more splicing attempts

I made what I'm calling the rigging bonner1040 and a tachyon lanyard

 

[Raj]

Nice! Where did you get the clear heat shrink? In Brantford the only place is Grainger, and it had to be special ordered.

 

[treegongfu]

I ordered it from tree stuff after having some trouble finding it here. Actually tree stuff sent me black by mistake and then after I told them they immediately sent out the clear stuff so I got it for free.

 

[pantheraba]

TreeStuff is crazy like that!!!!

Looks good!
