Splicing wand

[Matthew Sebring]

Well I did a couple of sta-set x splices in 1/2" line yesterday and it worked well. I had a bit of trouble getting the snared core in to the cover because of the bulk of the doubled over fibers. I would think that would be especially hard in normal double braid but I may be doing something wrong. All in all it was considerably easier to handle the long length of core on that sta-set X than using a normal solid fid and I don't like the selma fids for that stuff so it seems like just the right tool for the job. I'll have to measure it at the shop but from memory I think it's probably the large that I have. I'll give it a few more go's and then probably order it's smaller brother and sister. Thanks for the reply.
