Probably not going to finish the eye splice. I must have re-done it 3 times today(4th time total), and it's *still* not perfect. Getting there though.

I am finding it difficult to keep the strands from unravelling(taped ends, i twist as I tuck), especially after the second tuck. It is murder on my hands, and I broke the tip of my DIY fid XD...

I will practice on small ropes for a little while, and then move back to 12mm (1/2").

@rek Do you work three strand centre strand first, then right, then left? I found that makes a clean splice.

@ccohanlon I followed this tutorial, but it doesn't look as good as that lol, I may have made some mistakes. Who knows if i followed it right tho.
