    Show off them splices

    Years ago I was shown a rope walker set up made from Ocean Polyester. The top splice was a locking brummel with a covered eye so it looked identical to a DB splice. It was how the splicer got the cover completely over the eye with no core showing in the final splice that baffled me.

    If anyone feels like explaining this to a simpleton, could someone make a video showing how to do a locking brummel with a covered eye? I can't for the life of me get my head around it

    Tree stuffs dragonfly splice they sent me..

    I spliced Dragonfly just to see if I could. Ugly splice. I had some bought with a Slaice and it was great. I wouldn't want to look at that splice daily!

    I've never seen one done and learn a lot better by watching things. Can't get my head round how the brummel is formed with the jacket over the eye

    Cousin atrax splice how to

    Thanks @Brocky I'm going to give this a go, really interested in this. Sorry for all the questions! I'm guessing that you tie an anchor knot as usual in the normal place prior to extracting the core?

    Cousin atrax splice how to

    Does anyone feel like making a video of this? I think I've got the rough idea but would appreciate a video of any one has the inclination. Thanks

    The splicing wand and the amazing snare

    Hi mate. I made a replacement snare. Just braided some strands I'd pulled out of a but of scrap Beeline. Not broken one yet.
