A concern about the Arborist Splice

[RonReese]

Thanks, Brion. That's a relief. If the cover is the strength then my concern goes away.

Here's a link to three pics of the splice; you can't really tell much, except that its a splice.

Since I made the pics, I have stitched the base of the splice. I'm considering whipping it as well. I noticed your DVDs don't show a whipped or stitched splice, so I'm a litte foggy on what constitutes a good whip on this splice. Suggestions?

P.S.
How important and what is the purpose of stitching and whipping eye splices? Also, which is better, stitching or whipping?

Thanks,
Ron
