Since Opie had such a great solution to issues I have had for a long time I seem to have gotten the rope splicing bug again.
I used to do twisted rope splices, backsplice, loops, and joining lines, but that were a lot more difficult

and the results were never this nice.

for the 7/64 amsteel line, I use a guitar string, .035 inch.
For the 1.75 cord I use a piece of tag wire, wire used to attach tags to parts, it is .015 inch in diameter. Works very well.
In the last week I have completed 2 hammock suspensions with UCR attachments and toggles, and a bunch of loops for prusik knots on my tarp lines.
The largest loops in the photo started with 12 inches of line and use about 1 1/2 inches for each bury.
