Hey gang,

We have watched a number of videos on how to make our own Whoopie slings. I thought this would be a greatthing for me and my son to do together and both of us could learn some cool stuff. Not so yet.

I ordered some Amsteel Blue 1/8" line that is 12 strands for the simple fact that I figured it would be just a little stronger. We have yet to be able to "bury" the end of our line very well. We have tried the "cello tape" technique, as displayed by a British sounding guy, we have also tried the "fish wire" option also and just can't seem to get the rope to feed back through itself as easily as shown.

Are we missing something?

Are their some tips and tricks we need to be aware of?

We were hoping to get this down so we could share it with our Scout troop, but I am not confident with our technique enough to do so.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks Krazy and Kiddo
