Finally a video for beginners at eye splicing. Boat Builder Bob Emser takes us through the process of eye splicing polyester Sta-set rope. Bob reveals several tips that the expert/professional eye splicers fail to mention. Using a common line size for small boat 5/16" (8mm) Bob make splices and show how they are use on his boat a Haven 12 1/2 sailboat. In addition to a basic eye slice Emser shows how to add brass thimbles and snap shackles.

Everything is thought out and explained very carefully. An exquisite, fantastic work! I never tire of watching your videos.

Back at least 25 years ago, I made many dozens of splices for sailboat rigging. We would weave in the core 15 times the length of the eye and weave in the sheathing at least 7 times length. Whipping was unnecessary for our applications. Much more time consuming was weaving stranded stainless into a halyard with a very gentle taper for halyards. I liked New England Rope products for this type of work.

Well Bob I have to say, it’s been a splice. Thank you for your wonderful content.

Nice tutorial. I had to learn to polish my fids myself.

@SavingMaverick55 15 дней назад

Excellent tutorial, Bob. I have a bunch of lines with eye splices that came with the old boat im restoring and always wondered how they made rope do that. Now I know. Cool stuff.

Great tutorial on splicing!!! Please look up a snap shackle as this is quite different from a snap hook that you showed.

@TonyHammitt 16 дней назад

Wow, that's really a neat skill to have. I loved how well pulling on it with the bar pulled the last of the core in, that was like a magic trick. Maybe they should laser etch the fid instead of stamping it?

@ricksimpson1543 9 дней назад

Informative, as always. Thanks

@davidc6510 16 дней назад

That was a great video Bob. I always thought that making eye's was hard but your tips would certainly help. Thanks for sharing,

@TheArtofBoatBuilding 16 дней назад

You are very welcome

@michaelrehfisch96 13 дней назад

Thanks Bob. The tip on tapering the cover is was great- that’s been my undoing on my attempts with small diam lines when I haven’t been able to bury to form the eye.

Glad it helped!

Excellent video. Thank you.

@Rsama60 16 дней назад

Thanks for this video. I tried this once and failed. I think I used the wrong rope. It was quite old and a bit stiff (wanted to practice with a scrapped rope) and now I also think it was the wrong type.

@JenkinsBoatWorks 15 дней назад

hi Bob, good stuff as always. I had bought a set of fids a long time ago but didn't have very good instructions. I started and gave up in a fit of frustration. I may take another crack at it and now I know where to find the "how to" cheers, Chuck

@TheArtofBoatBuilding 15 дней назад

Hi Chuck, I agree at the start I too was frustrated with it. After several attempts it came together. Do give it a go it is quite satisfying. Cheers, Bob

I could have done with this a couple of days ago, as I had to redo the eyesplices for my mooring lines, fortunately I had an old one to copy.

@findersail6232 16 дней назад

Thank you.

You're welcome!

@jcwebb4now 16 дней назад

Another great video. I definitely struggle getting the doubled lines into that cover. I've been using old lines to practice. Any ideas on how to get old used line loosened up enough to get the core and cover to move?

@TheArtofBoatBuilding 13 дней назад

Soaking the ends may help.
