Jeff,

Thanks for the reply. I'll have another go at splicing an eye. I printed Brion's splicing instructions. It's interesting to me that he puts the core into the cover first, whereas my instructions from New England Ropes put the cover into the core first. The latter makes it difficult to manage the tapered cover when doing the subsequent operations. I'm eager to try Brian's method. Also, pulling out tracers to seize the crossover and finish the splice is ingenious.
