Good morning A very good way to quickly repair a mecathy. I have repaired them by actually weaving them back in To help set the hair in the knot to get it to accept it's new position get it wet and let it dry. This will help set the hair into its self. Like you said most people will just go buy a new one or grab a different one. I actually take old mecathy apart and braid them into a 4 stand hair rein eather a look rein or split rein. I started doing this to give me a foundation to hitch over to create a useable art. Have a good day. Enjoy your tips. From Glenn's Ferry Idaho .
Ok thanks for the information and permission to come up with ways to fix my mecante. Mine is broken at the end, horse stepped on the leather popper, stopped the unravelling with some tape. I have asked a couple makers with no positive answers. It seems like such a shame to throw out a nice hair rope. I'm working on an idea to clamp the end of it with a half inch steel hose clamp and cover it with electrical tape. Now I can splice the end!

you can tie it off with that same knot just be sure and hide the ends and fuzz them up. hose clamp and black tape works too.
Appreciate it
