Awesome!
Very entertaining, but nearly useless if you've never spliced. I liked the scissors chomping their way across the table and the markers too. I wish he'd used more frames and a tripod. Some parts cause siezures.

Very amusing!

That was cool. Very well done.
If you've never done or seen a splice done, this might not make sense.

Is there a web site that has video instructions for those of us that would like to learn how to do the splices? Also is ther a place we can go to that explains the differant types of ropes and there uses?

Welcome, fallguy. You can buy a video by Brion Toss that shows how to do all sorts of splices. As far as a place to go to learn about different ropes...welcome to the Buzz! Just start a thread.
