@@MrCubflyer no preference, really depends on the use case. When you are first starting it is best to get double braid where their is a good gap between the cover and the core. It can be worth a trip to the boat store to select one with a gap to practise. Once you have done a few you should be able to pull if off with most double braids

I do slings for the mechanics I work with. HD Mechanics. A lot of 3/4 ans 1 inch. At the last step I come out of the main line about 3 inches from the base of the loop/eye. I never take any of the ropes innards as you do and as I finish there are 3 layers of rope at that union. Far superior splice. Harder to do but these guys are animals with there slings. Setting a thimble is a good one to show as well.

I have a set of these and thing they will cover the rope size you are going for. There is always variation I the spacing between the core and the cover. Depending on this you often need to go up or down a size. If you purchase from my links and get stuck you can always make a home made D-Splicer from an old bit of wire. Don’t think it will come to that, if it does drop us a line and we can talk you through how to do it 👍

It will be almost the same as the rope on it's own. This is one of the primary reasons for splicing as you only loose a few % points, unlike a knot like a bowline where the same loop will cost you 30 to 40% percent depending on how it is tied.

The knot that you make are the 6:30 mark is in the cover which are this point of the splice is inside the core. When you undo this knot and taper it at the 10:00 mark and then complete the splice these two thickness slide back into the cover at the top end of the eye this is why we made this statement. The very end of the cover which is inside the core slide back into the core further up the standing end of the rope. Once complete, their will be three addition thicknesses of rope just above the eye (on top of the 2 in the original double braid). This is why we we taper the ends to allow up to fit the three addition thickness inside the original two of the rope. I agree it is hard to explain and visualise when we make the statement, no need to focus on this, if you follow the steps you will be able to learn this great skill.

Your video makes it look so simple! Thanks for sharing.! Just a couple of questions 1. Is the end eye size smaller than what you initially measured off? It's hard to tell from the video, but it looks smaller. Do I need to account for some shrinkage with the burys? 2. If the eye splice is used for a dock line, does it need to be stitched or whipped to keep from coming undone with repeated loosening and tightening? 3. I have an old double braid mainsheet I want to turn in to a dock line, so it's pretty stretched out. I've washed it several times to get the salt out. Any tricks for splicing an eye splice into "mature" line? Or am I wasting my time?
@BottomUPBoats
@BottomUPBoats 2 ай бұрын
@GeoffWalsh, after are few attempts with the right type of rope and the correct tools of the trade you too will be able to make it look this easy. 1. The eye will normalise to the size you marked it at in the early stages of the video after the initial load. It may be slightly smaller in the video as I shot the picture straight after doing the last step by hand,. The first time you use it under load it will normalise to the markings you made in the first steps of the video. 2. You don't need to stitch it to lock it in place, it should hold. You can do it to be extra secure but this splice is designed to operate without it. If you do want to do it check out our video on this. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWOygGijbLicldk 3. The choice of rope is really important for learning this splice, if there is not a lot of space between the core and the cover if can be really hard to do the bury steps. If the mains sheet is old and stretched my guess is it will be really hard, if not impossible to do this splice, you could give it a go but will learn how hard it will be as you soon as you try to get the core out of the cover. The other suggestion you could try is this splice. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWnWo2iii9l_las This one has less thickness in the final step to finish it off. You loose the strength of the cover around the full length of the loop but is should be strong enough as a docking line. 4. Final option if you can't complete the final bury of the cover as it is stretch to pull the cover through is do pull the core out of the cover about a foot from where the top of your eye will be. Do the eye splice one end fixed on the core then bury the cover in the core and whip it to hold it in place. Good luck with either option 3 or 4.

The cover taper was never correctly measured or started, its 8 pairs up from the mark to “T” then every 5th strand opposite pairs are cut, also the core was never properly tapered either for whether it was a 8, 12 or 16 strand core. This makes a huge difference in the cover into the core and core into cover transition and seating into x as well as the slack being able to be milked out if the cover to fully seat the eye and having the core not bind at “z”.

Very good explanation and demo but, you can’t do it in “minutes” without a load of practice can you. I’d say you’re looking at about half an hour once you’ve got the steps memorised and don’t need to keep going back to the video, then after practice probably about 25 minutes per splice, which still doesn’t come under “in minutes” as a fair description.

The first attempt can talks some time but it gets easier the more you do it. If you have right tools and make sure the rope you start with has some space between the cover and the core you will be fine if you follow alone. We say give it a go and you will surprise yourself as you master this great sailing skill.

There is both core and the outer braid all the way through the eye.

Don’t bother to try on used rope. You must create the eye splice using brand new rope. I used to enjoy doing it until some kind soul stole all my fids.

100% that new rope is the way to do... Why not buy some new fids via the product links in the description and get back to it ?

@@BottomUPBoats you misunderstand bottom up boats, which is a great name btw, I have "mastered it" by paying someone else a couple of dollars to do it. I got a lot to think about 80 foot up in a cottonwood, my ability to splice shouldn't be one of those things.

You must be kidding! Who would want to go through all that? It's far too complicated for a video as no one could remember al the incremental steps. Far better to demonstrate with visual text instructions. Even better, buy a new rope with the eyes you need.

Will have to agree to disagree with this one, sailors who are in the know will always take the time to learn this skill. They are stronger than knots and look great. It does take a few goes to get it right, that is the perfect reason to make a video so people can work through it at there own pace speeding up or rewinding until you have done it enough to commit it to memory.
