Bring your own fid!

Whipping and splicing are traditional ways to repair and care for your rope. They're especially useful, as replacing rope new for old is wasteful and can be expensive.

The technique of whipping is hundreds of years old, but it remains the best and safest way to secure the end of a rope. It’s generally regarded to be much better than melting the end, which can create sharp or bulging ends.

Rope splicing is the forming of a semi-permanent joint between two or two parts of the same rope by partly untwisting and then interweaving their strands. 

Splices can be used to form a stopper at the end of a line, to form a loop or an eye in a rope, or for joining two ropes together. Splices are preferred to knotted rope, since while a knot typically reduces the strength by 20–40%, a splice is capable of attaining a rope's full strength.

Any Questions talk to Roger, see you all there!
