    samson splicing pdf downloads ( whoopie slings )

    Was checking out Samson website and saw that they had splicing instructions on PDF format. Downloaded to my phone and now I'll always have the files. Nice directions I might add.

    Which PDF?

    Which set of instructions would you say mirrors what we do with amsteel? I'm not sure if it is class 1 or 2. Seems like I found the instructions before but after looking at a few of them I didn't find it. Also, what type of phone do you have that allows you to download PDFs?

    Okay I found the whoopie sling instructions for 12 strand rope. 7/64 amsteel is 8 strands hence my confusion. Obviously I can go by those instructions.

    I just Google whoopie sling buried end and several pdfs showed up. The ones I downloaded actually say whoopie slings. I'm not sure where there are on that list. But they are on that website. I couldnt post a link for the actually PDFs that I downloaded because I did this with my phone. Everytime I click on the link it just downloads again. Oh I have a htc sensation.
