Your splicing needle kit works so much better than a regular needle. Why didn't you use that? Then the fraying doesn't matter. I find the next to smallest one in the kit is perfect for ZingIt. The other plus is that the end of the loop turner is too blunt to spit strands. Best $4.95 I ever spent.
Wow. That may be your longest video ever. Good job.
I just can’t believe that you guys do all your splices by hand. Makes me feel bad when i place an order 😂
Wow!Tutorial on splicing from Dutch! Thanks for that.
Learned it already but thanks for refreshing my memory !
Is there a reason you use Zingit instead of Dyneema for the soft shackle?
Why not do the overhand not before doing the bury? Wouldn't that lock the knot in permanently?
You can do that if you want. We have found this technic is simpler and holds just fine.
Very interesting, I really like that. Thanks for sharing!
Can you use the same diameter rope for the ridge line and prusik?
Yes but it takes more wraps. I use 4 to 5 for the zing it on zing it.
This was great, thanks!

Makes my hands ache watching.
Splicing gives you great hand muscles!
