Jonathan, Try the Samson or NE Rope splicing instructions available on their websites. Eye splices are so easy even I can do them!

In the store, they made it sound so easy to splice round a thimble.! Essentially they told me to pass the end of the line through the working section, and then back through one side and feed the end up inside the working section. Sounded easy! Anyone done this and got any tips? I can get the first stage done, but do not seem to be able to get the loose end inside the working section!
