Do any of you guys splice any of your own ropes out there?
I've been thinking for a long time now of buying the book from SherrillTree's catalog, and somehow obtaining th tools that are needed; and have wondered if this is a fairly straightforward highly attainable skill with the right equipment and set-up, and maybe a few hours of due dilligence to perfect a first successful splice and get it down.
I was an eagle scout, and could lash up the meanest, most bomb stable teepee structures at age 14.
I feel like with a book and the right tools, I could definitely work it out and be safe!
Have any of you gentlemen taught yourselves this?
And is it even worth the effort? Time, (each time you need something. How long does it take to splice an eye?)
Because I'd like to custom create stuff when I want to.
Peace
