I need a whipping

Lesson! (what were you thinking????) on how to do the ends of rope, and also how do you do the same thing with say, stainless wire? Like for the wood shroud rollers I'm going to make?

LOL...so many ways people could misinterpret that Denise...

Try this PDF to start with. Grog's also has a few listed here.

As for stainless steel wire for wooden shroud rollers, what I'd do instead is cut a groove around the shroud rollers and then just wrap it with wire in the groove, and then twist it off and press the wire flat into the groove so it doesn't snag anything.

Another option is to get a ClampTite tool, which is a really cool gadget to have aboard a boat anyways, and use it to clamp off the shroud rollers using stainless steel seizing wire, which you should have aboard anyways. BTW, I got one of these at the last boat show...very useful.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
