Just got my bottom plate so I gonna make this now. I will not use sipties and knots for the bottom line tough I will braid the rope in to it self to make a more permanent loop.

if it works it works. i have my spearfishing line braided into itself like that.

@@Jackhatfieldfreediver yea I like that attitude. If it works it works. Makes everything simple and easy. Going to my boathouse now soon to finish up the line. I am unsure how long to make it tough. I can now dive to 12-15m and need some room for improvement. So I think to make it 30-40m. What length is practical for a beginner line?

Jack Hatfield you got it! Thanks for the easy to follow videos. Just completed our level 1 FD class and fell in love.

Do you have a rope recommendation for the line?

[@Jackhatfieldfreediver]

I usually use 12mm PPV. Fairly light and durable but also a static line with minimal stretching properties
