I need to replace my topping lift.
I picked up a length of 3/8ths double braid.
I want to put an eye splice in one end.
I have read how-to's from on-line.
THE NORSON SPLICE
DOUBLE BRAID EYE SPLICE
Class I Double Braid Eye Splice
I have watched the videos:
It looks reasonably straight forward. This scares me. I know there will come a point where I ask myself 'why the eff didn't I get a pro to do this for me?'
What I am asking for is any pointers, hints, watchpoints, secrets, etc. from any experienced marlin-spikers out there.
Anyone got anything to offer?
Keep your eyes on the news: this might get interesting....
