Re: Cable splicing

Been awhile since we spliced any wire here! We use a splice that has no enlarged area. A running splice like they use on cable cars and chair lifts. I can say that I do not miss the excitement of splicing 1" steel cable. :grumpy:

Is Spliceing control cables still legal?
It is dieing art even among sailors, they dont even slice rope.
My tiedown ropes and many others I have has splised eyes and ends on them as I enjoy doing what kind off work.(;f
As I think I have to replace my rudder cable shortly I may want to splice them looks very neat if dune well.
Can I use Stainless Steel for the rudder cables!
