OK... So Im making whoopie slings...

With all the talk of splicing, can anyone explain, in lay terms, the proper way to lock the dead eye on the sling? Ive followed Samsons instructions for locking an eye on 12 strand rope, which is what Im using, Amsteel.

Its the finish Im having issues understanding.
