Big thanks for a simple tutorial, just spliced five loops all the same size ! I have one Blister on finger now ! Excellent

[feldingmads]

Thank you for a really fine how to, made my first splices in Dyneema now, following your video.
Love the way you make it so simple, that one just do it.
No rockets, just splicing.

Nicely done, very clear and precise instructions. I have never spliced anything before and just made 4 continuous loops very easily. Thank you.

Thanks for the video. I subscribed. These videos will be very helpful for my intro to DIY.

Your videos are always my go to ones for this sort of stuff, so thanks for sharing. I have been looking for rope in the same size range that has more strands, like 12 or more. Is the 16 strand rope the same size as 7/64 Amsteel? Would you mind sharing where you got the 16 strand stuff?

[mommydearest]

it must be the angle and being close up...when I took the 4 strands out it seems that the others unravel and where I cut them was harder to they were hard to get them back through it took about 5 min of twisting and pulling but it looked easy for you...any suggestions????Love your work by the way...

Is someone watching Twin Peaks in the background, or is someone actually calling for “Laura”? Love the videos, BTW!

Only friction is keeping it from pulling apart, right? The crossover is only locked by pulling on the ends, so theoretically you could pull it apart. I understand that to lock itself you'd end up with quite a lump when burying the ends. BTW, how do you keep your knife sharp enough to cut this stuff...I go through 3-4 razor blades for every splice.

What is the cord you use on this video? Would you just use the loop you made here for just hanging gear or is it strong enough to use on a hammock? Thanks for sharing the video.

Can I use the same measurements to make continuous loops from 1/8" diameter dyneema?

Hi Tac Blades,
I've been able to find the awl tool on eBay, but I'm unable to find something similar to your fish tool. Where did you buy it?

[mommydearest]

I followed every step over and over again for this continuous loop..what I have noticed is that you are using a larger rope and that the tools you use makes it easier for you.. I have the same tool as you... the Loop Turner..it did not work as I was using 7/64 amsteel I could hardly move it up to grab the ends it plugged several times, I was not happy...can you do a continuous loop using 7/64 amsteel to see how you do....I believe the difference in the amsteel and what you used is different.. I think yours is way easier but all I have is amsteel right now....any thoughts about this...

Excellent. By the way what is the "cone" shaped tool called and where can we find those? Appreciate and thank you

[brianbassett]

I hate bothering you... the silver golf-tee looking tool, the one you use to spread the strands, where can I locate one? And you replied to another person in the comments that the line is 16 strands white Dyneema and I can't seem to find it anywhere on the internet. You referenced Wake-board tow lines and what I am finding there is some type of monofilament line. Like spider web from Shelob in Lord of the Rings. I can only guess what that stuff costs per foot. The only 16 strand Dyneema line I can find is for fishing and like 1 mm or something, too small for a lashing line of any kind. Like trying to use my Dyneema kite lines for tarp tie-downs. It's got to be big enough to work with your hands. Thanks for any help you can give.
