Default Great Idea!

I like that idea for the gate!

I'm guessing an HM line grommet is a brummel then bury one end this way and the other end that way. Makes sense to me. And a quick check of "Working Rope" convinces me. Although it seems to me that the grommet is just a big eye splice sans standing part. Doing the double hockle topography thingie would seem to simplify the initial steps. And maybe I'm wrong.

> later that same evening.....

Nope. The double hockle trick is not going to work. Both hockles need to be part of the eye. Oh well.

I too like the wands! Highly recommended.
