Did you use the inverted on one of those eyes on the tenex? It also looks like the top eye might have too many picks down.

It looks like the bottom splice on the pinto rig is not a locked brummel, make sure you got a deep enough bury and overlap.

Also what application would you use the monkey tail for?

Yea I know the bottom isn't a true locking brummel but once one side is done how you going to fit the whole pulley through the tenex? If you look closely in the picture here...one of them is not a locked brummel for this reason.

One is a locking brummel, the other is a 'red book' brummel.
There is a little discrepancy in the circled area. Can't tell what's goin on with the pic.

Yes, if it's done according to manufacturer's recommendations. I've been doin strate buries on eye & eye's for 3 or 4 years now. Had em tensile tested. Breakin above specs.
