@@SailingDauntless that looked much easier than I expected, I figured you'd have to weave the strands in. That line is also way stronger than I expected - wow!
Years ago when golf club woods had persimmon wooden heads, we used to wrap black twine to keep the steel shaft from coming out of the wooden head. So there was no sign of ends just a 3" long neatly wrapped twine. I would start the twine wrap off with a large loop of twine and wrap over the length of the loop. Once the desired length had been reached. You pull the loop through the wrapped part and trim it off. That way there was no sign of twine at either the start or the end of the twine length. You should try, I never knew it to come undone.
I learned splicing in the '60s with 3 strand manila. You'd whip each of the 3 strands and you'd whip the bitter end of a line. The easiest to me was the long splice which took two 100 foot lines and yeilded a 194 foot line that would pass easily through a block. Thank you to the Boy Scouts of American and their Pioneering Merit Badge instruction book. This is a different kettle of fish, but the theory and object are the same.
That made it look simple, my mum showed me to tie a knot wrap it around the needle 2-3 times then slide it down the thread, you get the same result a little knot👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺
@The End:- Yes, sir.. I did enjoy the video... This is a new way for me... But, your video made it look so easy... Thank you for sharing... Loads of love from India....
I use more of a traditional French whipping stitch. I like to use heat shrink (adhesive lined) on dock lines over the stitch. Looks great, and I can always tell what lines are mine. It tends to be somewhat inflexible for other applications.
Ty! Been following you from the first video! You really out did your self with this perfectly done tutorial! Awesome video! I do not think Hollywood could do better videography!
Love the demo, but as an old Boatwain mate, get no marring pliers so you don't mar, scratch or damage your sail needle. It doesn't take much to make it a more of a pain to pull through. You guys are awesome,! Happy sailing.
Great video Ty, you always do such a great job with your description of what your doing. Can’t wait till your in the on the water with the wind in your sails
Nice lesson! Thanks. Can't imagine the patience to do it 40 times. Looks like the 2 of you have been getting some of that southern sun. Nice! Up here in upstate NY it's not quite season yet. Enjoy it when you have it.
nice demo istarted psicing in the days of doublebraid and its a real pain single braid dynemma is amazing easy to do. amazing material for rigging as well no more blood loss with norseman type terminals
Re. "Whip it good"... no apologies necessary, that song comes to mind every time I watch a video that has whipping in it. Especially when it's whipped good.
Very nice. Did you know if you apply some heat when finished, just a lick of a flame from a cigarette lighter or I guess these days a hot air gun, you will soften the wax in your waxed twine and all the turns will stick together, extra protection against it slipping loose.
Now everyone. As your reward for finishing Rick's splicing class: You should buy your self a Live Dauntless T-shirt. I even got my wife one because she did walk past the tv twice while I was watching.
I suspect then that this is the only type of splicing that you use on the boat. Yes/no? If there is any other type, another detailed video like this would be great.
When would one whip a dyneema eye splice like this? It seems like the whip transfers the strength of the splice into the strength of the stitch. Wouldn't a lock stitch be better since it just meant to keep the lines in place?
We use Premium Ropes! Check the description for the link. Once there you can go to the tools section where you’ll find the scissors, D-Spicer and Fid Kit. Also, if you’d like to use the same type of line that we did, look for the “S core” Stirotex
Hey Ty... How did I miss this video? I have subscribed and enabled all notifications!! Any suggestions on how to keep getting notifications? Is that because I have subscribed to too many channels? Please help me..
@@SailingDauntless Ok Sir.. Let me try.. I unsubscribed from almost 100+ channels who never posted anything since a year... Hahaha... Cant help, they had good content back then...
Hey I have a question what is the name of the Stuff in a tube that you put on your boat to prevent corrosion you put it on all the bolts and I cannot remember the episode but you talk about it a lot
You will get a better taper if you pull your line through all the way first and then cut your taper before milking it down. Also, look up how to do a locking Brummel splice - this will alleviate the need to whip this loop.
Thank you for the tip Vicki! I did the long bury on both ends so they all match. The brummel works awesome but I can’t do it on both ends without extra hardware. Also, I really like the look of the whipping so it works out and they all match😉. Anything requiring major loads or if it’s used on running rigging we will do a locking splice.
Great and easy tutorial. Even if I’ve been out sailing for 6 yrs I never bothered to learn this thinking it was some child hands and witchcraft involved…

This was a well made "tutorial/lesson", saved it for later use! Need to learn this myself!
As always, keep up the great work guys!
This is a really cool lesson! Thanks for sharing and showing us how!
Thanks Rick!

That needle is AWESOME!! SOOO much easier than a full size fid through those 18"!
The whippings are nicely Ty’ed off.
Yes, no wiping twine necessary. Search locking Brummell splice.
Correct, but you cannot do the Brummell on both ends. My OCD won’t allow different splices next to each other 😂
Oh yes you can! Check this video: th-cam.com/video/DbCri0mldLw/w-d-xo.html
Love this stuff!

The Rigging Doctor has a video on his channel on how to do a locking splice so no whipping is needed. I've not tried it yet.

Thank a lot you are good and smooth teacher. Have a good time on sailing boat.
Really nice work buddy🙌🏻
OMG!!! It took me years to learn to bury the tail after I knotted it at the end and you nailed it!!!! Now I just have to find something to splice!!!
Omg that was So interesting and even I got it how to do that Thank you one of the Best How to I've seen thanks
Great Topic and Video! I appreciated Ty's teaching style. Thank you!
This was an awesome video. Now I know how to make my lines for my boat more presentable and stronger. Thank You!!
Nice video.. Thank you very much.. Enjoy sailing!
Thanks for watching!
❤Thank You guys, look simple… will try when you back in the water
Great lesson! Thanks!
This was an easy an awesome lesson in splicing.
Thank you so much, so appreciated
Cheers

Great job explaining that.. I wish I had your patience.
thanks for the tutorial, I've wanted to learn this for a while....
Great video Ty, you always do such a great job with your description of what your doing. Can’t wait till your in the on the water with the wind in your sails
Amazing how easy it is once you know how to do it! Thanks for a simple, yet effective, tutorial on how to splice.

Well done with the explanation! I might be able to make a few dock lines for my little boat now!
Good explanation. Thank you.
Nice job!
Fascinating ! Makes me want to get some line and splice and whip it just for fun. Thanks for the lesson. Really enjoy all your vids. 🙂
Nice use of picture-in-picture, thanks Ty!
Thank you for sharing this.
Great episode Professor Ty, you’ve made that look so easy. Thank you.
Excellent!

Great demo I always wondered how to do those
Very good
great lesson....thanks
A fantastic demonstration. Thanks for sharing your skills.
Very interesting

Get Ashley's Book of Knots. Money well spent for anybody that works with cord, ropes, lines.
What are those super fancy scissors?

There are many other types of splicing based on the application,we will be cover more of this in future episodes
@@SailingDauntless Because you are awesome. Thanks.

A Brummell splice would lock that in without the whipping.
Indeed, but it’s not as pretty and I can’t make both ends match.

I have a confession to make... I said "Thats what she said" about 473 times during this video. Is that normal ?? :)
Yes, yes it is…..
