    One End brummel

    http://www.neropes.com/SPL_12Strand_...ceBrummel.aspx

    This you can do if only one end is free or do the one end as a locked like the guys above said then do this one to get an eye in each end

    Same as what I posted. Should help if the pics in the link I posted are not clear.

    here's Opie's you tube instructions on doing a locked brummel using just one end of the rope:

    you should find his other how-to's there also.

    Here's another method to do a McDonald Brummel that is easier for me than the method shown by Opie - I don't have to undo that first pull through.

    Scroll abou halfway down to the right sidebar and the "Helpful Howto Videos" and click on the "Modified Brummel Splice part 1".
