Finally someone that uses the remaining strand to stitch the splice with it. I always thought it was a waste of stands to NOT use them. Great idea if I say so myself. Great video. Keep it up.
Great video! I enjoyed the pace of it and your explanation, no extra noise with sound . Thank you 🙏
Excellent video
Great video ! When you use the ropes own thread to lock stitch, how to you finish it ? Do you just embed it in ?
Thank you
Load test it... That white rope is actually spliced how Samson suggest they want the jacket tabbed out and ladder halfhitched to it..
I didn’t understand from the video whether “class 2” splices are better?
Depending on the type of rope and its construction will determine what kind of splice is needed. A Type II splice is done on ropes that are core dependent. This type of splice is not better or worse than the splice done on a double braid nylon, it's just the procedure is different. I hope this helps clear things up.
Hi, I just made an eye splice on Samson Hyperclimb 24 strand double braid and wanted to lock stitch the eye, but the first 3 inches are so solid and dense that I can’t get a needle through. Any tips? Can I simply stitch it further down the rope where it’s a little softer? Thank you!
get a hammer and encourage the needle through.
Yep, this is pretty common. Moving that stitch down the throat a bit is fine. As long as that stitching goes through the cover/core blend part you are good.
On a single braided dyneema lock splice, does it make sense stiching?
If you are using a locking brummel splice then, no, not really. It wouldn't hurt to throw in some stitches in the burry part if you wanted. but a proper locking brummel splice locks that rope tail from coming out of the core.
